Pakistan are currently busy playing the ongoing 20-20 World Cup 2022 in Australia. They were coming off after winning the T20I tri-series in New Zealand. So, Babar Azam was in a good mood leading into this World Cup. On 23 October, Pakistan kicked off their World Cup campaign against India in Melbourne.

But, the Men in Blue managed a four-wicket victory over the Men in Green. Then, they took on Zimbabwe in Perth on 27 October. But, they shocked their fans as Zimbabwe managed to defeat Pakistan by one run. After such a humiliating loss, both fans and players were shocked. Even, former cricketers came up to criticize Babar Azam and his men for such a poor show so far in the tournament.

Babar Azam has scored eight runs so far in three matches of the ongoing 20-20 World Cup

Then, they took on the Netherlands on 30 October 2022 in Perth. But, skipper Babar Azam failed again to score as he got out early. In three matches of the World Cup, he has scored eight runs so far. Against India, Babar Azam got out on a golden duck. Then, against Zimbabwe, he managed only four runs. So, fans were hoping to see Babar Azam back in form against the Dutch. But, he failed again as he got out for four runs. Fans become angry as they came out and shared their opinion on the star Pakistani batter.

Speaking about his form and team selection, Sunil Gavaskar also slammed earlier. He said that Babar Azam did not use Mohammad Wasim Jr. against India which cost them the match. He said: “They don't have a very settled middle order. In the T20I matches they played before, Fakhar Zaman played at No.3 or 4. Now he is just part of the squad, but not in the XI. Shan Masood is also there. although he is scoring runs. But I feel their selection hasn't been good. For Australian conditions, if they had a bowler who could seam up as Mohammad Wasim did against Zimbabwe. And he also played a couple of good shots as well. He has that talent.”
