It is the newest format in cricket. Recently T10 league took place in Sharjah recently which was a success. Babar Azam has also featured in Under 19 World Cup that took place in 2012. Babar Azam knows how to play well in One-day international cricket. He is one key batsman in ODI cricket for Pakistan at the present moment.
His performance in test cricket has been not good scoring only 4 half centuries. He has played only 11 test matches so far and not able to convert good performances for Pakistan. Babar Azam comes at number 3, struggles against top quality bowling in tough conditions. He needs to learn quickly to play in tough conditions and become a great cricketer.
Babar Azam has been included in the ODI squad against New Zealand. He would be eager to showcase his talent in New Zealand and come with match-winning performances.
