Pakistan’s star batter and former captain Babar Azam is facing one of the toughest phases of his 13-year cricketing career, as his recent performances with the bat raise serious questions about his form. Once considered the backbone of Pakistan’s batting lineup, Babar’s recent string of low scores has left fans disappointed and cricket analysts speculating about the cause of his slump.
In the latest series, Babar failed to deliver once again, managing just a handful of runs and appearing out of rhythm. This prolonged dip has now marked the worst statistical period of his international journey — a surprising turn for a player once ranked among the world’s top three across formats.
Critics are calling for either a break or a strategic shift in his game, while fans continue to hope for a strong comeback. As pressure mounts ahead of upcoming international fixtures, all eyes remain on whether Babar Azam can silence the doubters and rediscover his golden touch.
