Ramiz Raja Publicly Humiliates Babar Azam for His Poor Strike Rate Ahead of T20 World Cup 2024
Babar Azam has a strike rate of 129 in T20s.
Babar Azam’s batting has always been a topic of discussion, and his strike rate in T20 cricket is no exception. During a recent appearance on “Showtime with Ramiz Raja,” the former Pakistan captain found himself on the receiving end of a good-natured jab from Rajiz Raja.
While discussing Babar Azam‘s social media posts, a photo featuring the batter doing abs exercises appeared on the screen. Ramiz Raja then playfully asked the Pakistan captain if the exercise routine had any impact on his gameplay, especially strike rate.
This comment sent a wave of laughter through the audience and even elicited a chuckle from Babar himself.

It’s no secret that Babar Azam’s T20 strike rate, currently at 129, falls short compared to the more aggressive approach favoured in the modern T20 game.
Raja’s comment, though lighthearted, highlights the ongoing debate surrounding Babar’s ability to adapt his batting style to the demands of T20 cricket, especially with T20 World Cup just around the corner.
