Babar Azam has been compared to Indian captain Virat Kohli from time to time in view of the manner in which he bats and stands as a wall for the team in difficult situations. Although Babar Azam still has a young career, this batsman has left his mark in international cricket at the very beginning of his career.
Well, if we talk about the competition, then in the first innings, Pakistan’s team was bundled out for 148 runs. At the same time, Australia, batting first, scored 556 runs for the loss of 9 wickets and declared the innings. In the second innings, Australia declared the innings at 97/2. In this way Pakistan got the target of 501 runs to win.
Babar Azam, speaking to broadcasters after the conclusion of the fourth day’s match, said, “This innings means a lot to me, because the team needed it. Luckily I shared a good partnership with Shafiq. The match is not over yet. So, we have to continue like this and the coming batsmen also have to do well. After the first innings, we practiced in the nets to give befitting reply to the reverse swing bowlers and understood that we have to play a little late.”
