New Delhi. Babar Azam, a Pakistani batsman with jersey number 56 who has been compared to legends like Virat Kohli.

Rahmanullah Gurbaz said in an interview with Pakistani video maker Momin Saqib, ‘I will never forget that moment about Babar. First we beat Pakistan and then I asked him for his bat. He was very disappointed when he came with the bat and as a player I could feel it. I can feel the situation when you have lost a game and in such a situation you have to do this. He was under a lot of pressure.

Trust me, I was trying not to say this in front of the camera, but I have to say he was about to cry. He was very disappointed and I have never seen a player like him. All were against him. But I salute Babarbhai, he was very strong and kept going. He never gave up.
