Babar Azam Has To Achieve A Lot More In Test Cricket: Ramiz Raja
Pakistan Cricket Board: Former Pakistan cricketer and Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Ramiz Raja feels that star batter Babar Azam has yet to achieve his best in the Test format. Babar was rested for the last two Tests against England after his poor form. Pakistan won both the matches and secured the series 2-1, the first under Shan Masood's rein.
In 55 Tests, Babar has scored 3,997 runs at an average of 43.92. However, he had not scored a Test half-century since 2022 and has seen a dip in form in a year where he was made captain and then left the post after Pakistan suffered a group-stage exit in this year’s T20 World Cup in June.
Talking about Babar's recent form, Raja feels that former captain has to show that he has potential like legendary Viv Richards. "I feel Babar has to achieve a lot more in Test cricket. He plays the white-ball format really well, has an average of 50-plus in both the formats (T20I and ODI)...There is so much potential in Babar Azam," said Raza on his YouTube channel.
