Babar Azam failed on every front of captaincy, 2 years and 6 events, each time Pakistan came up empty handed.

New Delhi. The Pakistan team failed to make it to the semi-finals of the World Cup 2023. In the last match of the tournament, captain Babar Azam was dismissed for 38 against England on Saturday. He could not score a single century in the entire tournament. Look at Babar Azam’s performance as a skipper from 2021, he participated in 6 events and failed to lead the team to a single title. For this reason, former Pakistani cricketers from Moeen Khan to Shoaib Malik are talking about taking away the captaincy from Babar. According to media reports, Babar himself may leave the captaincy after the World Cup.

First let’s talk about T20 World Cup 2021. In the tournament played in UAE, Pakistan recorded a memorable victory against India by 10 wickets. But the team could not go beyond the semi-finals. Pakistan suffered a crushing defeat against Sri Lanka in the final of the 2022 Asia Cup. In 2022, under the captaincy of Babar Azam, the Pakistan team reached the final of the T20 World Cup. This time he lost to England. It is known that since 1992, Pakistan team has not won the ODI World Cup title till now.

Performance was also poor at the WTC
The final of the 2023 World Test Championship was played between India and Australia. Pakistan team could not even qualify for the finals of this ICC tournament. Then in Asia Cup 2023, the performance of the team under the captaincy of Babar Azam was very bad. The team was eliminated from the Super-4 round. He had to face a crushing defeat by Team India by 228 runs. Sri Lanka also defeated him. Now the team failed to perform well even in World Cup 2023. Under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, Team India not only won the Asia Cup but also made it to the semi-finals of the World Cup 2023.

How did Pakistan reach the semi-finals? A player gave away 530 runs alone, became the most expensive bowler in the world

The average was 40 in the World Cup
If we look at Babar Azam’s performance in World Cup 2023, he scored 320 runs at an average of 40 in 9 innings of 9 matches. Scored 4 half centuries. 74 was the best performance. 3 batsmen scored centuries for Pakistan. Including Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Rizwan and Abdullah Shafiq. Before the start of the World Cup, Babar was at the top of the ODI rankings, but recently Team India’s young batsman Shubman Gill has taken away the number-1 position from him.
