‘Babar Azam Should Get Married to Boost His Strike Rate’ – Kamran Akmal Mocks Pakistan Captain on National Television
Babar Azam has become a center of trolling ever since Pakistan suffered an early exit in the T20 World Cup 2024.
Pakistan captain Babar Azam has been under intense scrutiny ever since the team’s early exit from the T20 World Cup 2024, failing to qualify even for the Super 8s.
Apart from his captaincy, his batting has also been criticized, as he often struggles against the big teams and fails to adapt to the modern T20 cricket demands, which require hitting from the get-go.
Many former Pakistan cricketers and experts have advised Babar Azam to play with a higher strike rate, but that has not materialized so far.
Recently, Pakistan wicket-keeper Kamran Akmal, who is also Babar Azam’s cousin, made a remark on national television regarding Babar’s personal life.
In a viral video circulating on social media, Kamran Akmal can be seen suggesting that Babar Azam should get married to improve his strike rate.
The entire panel on the show burst into laughter after hearing this. Furthermore, the female panelist on the show was even asked if she knew anyone who could marry Babar Azam.
Babar Azam’s Captaincy in Jeopardy
Babar Azam was reappointed as the white-ball captain of the Pakistan cricket team just before the T20 World Cup 2024 by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).
However, given his poor performance in back-to-back ICC events, it will be interesting to see if the PCB will take strict action against him.
