Babar Azam’s Poor Form In Test Cricket Continues Against Bangladesh

The batting prowess of Babar Azam, Pakistan’s foremost batsman still left him battling while playing in second test match against Bangladesh at Rawalpindi. He got dismissed for only 11 runs in the second innings which is his fourth low score consecutively in this series. Babar left after defending a good length ball when edged it towards first slip where Shadman Islam cleanly caught it off Nahid Rana who is a fast bowler from Bangladesh.

The newest collapse has captured massive attention on social media with fans and critics sharing their disappointment and unhappiness at him. Throughout the entire series, Babar’s lack of form and confidence has been so visible meaning that it raises queries as to when he will regain his touch again.

Numerous serious basher comments have flooded the web with a lot of people questioning on his place in the team. Heis among the most talented batsmen in Pakistan, but his recent performances have not lived up to expectations that have worried both club management and fans on his slump.

Babar Azam has not reached a century since December 2022:

Babar Azam scored just 11 runs in his final innings to conclude his Test series against Bangladesh. In the second half of the last Test match, Babar was not at his best when Pakistan needed him most. The former captain of Pakistan has had a terrible series and is still having trouble in international cricket.

Babar Azam faced Bangladesh and managed just 64 runs in four innings. He almost had a pair in the opening Test match, but Litton Das dropped him for a golden duck in the second innings.

Babar was out three times in this series by pacers and once by spinner Shakib Al Hasan. He was also undone in this series by his propensity to edge the ball behind the wicket on both sides.

Since December 2022, the senior batter has not reached the century mark. In actuality, in the red-ball format, this was Babar’s 16th inning without a single fifty. In the next six months, Pakistan will host the Champions Trophy, and the squad is hoping that Babar will be back to full strength by then.
