Taking to Twitter, Babar dropped the post with the caption, “Good-to-go.” The video which had upbeat background music gave a look into the positive mindset of Babar going into this series.
The 27-year-old has been going through a rough patch of form currently. Babar entered the Asia Cup 2022 as the top T20I batter in the world. But following the T20 competition, he was overtaken by his fellow countryman Mohammad Rizwan. He slipped to No 3 as South Africa’s Aiden Markram took the 2nd spot. Babar only managed 68 runs in six games, scoring at a strike rate of 107.93, an average of 11.33, and a high of 30 against Sri Lanka in the Super Four.
Lahore-born Babar is now 52 runs away from being only the second Pakistani batter (after Shoaib Malik) to reach 8000 T20 runs. He had the opportunity to reach the milestone during the Asia Cup 2022, but he was unable to do so.
