In fact, this word has often been used on social media to tease Babar Azam. This is because many fans allege that Babar scores runs only against small teams including Zimbabwe. It is also said that whenever a big team is in front or there is a big tournament like World Cup where Pakistan needs him, Babar does not score runs. Due to this, the common fans who criticize him on social media raise questions on Babar with this name.

How is the condition of Pakistan?

Babar is currently away from the team with his family. He is expected to return for the ODI series against Australia from next month. As far as the Rawalpindi Test match is concerned, the Pakistani team looked in a strong position in the beginning on the first day but by the end of the day, it itself was in trouble. The spin duo of Sajid Khan and Noman Ali once again showed their magic and bowled out England for just 267 runs, but by the end of the day, Pakistan itself had lost 3 wickets while only 73 runs were added to its score.
