Pakistan captain Babar Azam’s struggles persisted in the ICC World Cup 2023, as he could only contribute 10 runs in the challenging chase of 345 runs against Sri Lanka at Hyderabad’s Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium.

Babar Azam, who appeared to be in sublime form during the ICC World Cup 2023 warm-up fixtures, failed to get going m in the main event. He managed only five runs in Pakistan’s first match against the Netherlands and couldn’t make any significant contribution in the second game against Sri Lanka.

Babar Azam is 29 Years old and has played only one Iconic knock in his whole ODI Career that came against NZ in CWC'19 but some of his fans have audacity to mock Virat Kohli for his ODI WC century against SENA and that's the only blot in Virat Kohli's cricketing career.

I am sorry and there is no hate but tonight was the occasion where Babar Azam was supposed to prove everyone wrong.

World Cup hai, flat wicket hai, 345 on the board hai, Babar Azam #1 hai, ab nahi tu phir kab? #BabarAzam #PakvSL #ODIWorldCup2023

Babar Azam is a good player but he's nowhere near the bracket of cricket greats.
