Pakistan captain Babar Azam revealed who named him 'Bobby’
Pakistan’s charismatic white-ball captain, Babar Azam, recently shed light on the origin of his nickname “Bobby” during an appearance on the show “The Showtime with Ramiz Raja.”
In a rapid-fire round, when asked about his nickname, Babar Azam revealed it was none other than former Pakistan captain, Sarfaraz Ahmed, who gave him the nickname.
Babar Azam’s outstanding half-century knock in the third T20I against Ireland secured victory for Pakistan, clinching the series 2-1. Earlier, he also became the most successful captain in T20 internationals.
With the Ireland series wrapped up, the Pakistan cricket team now sets its sights on England. The upcoming three-match series serves as a crucial warm-up before the T20 World Cup 2024.
