Babar Azam is the captain of Peshawar Jalmi in Pakistan Super League 2025. Amid this league, his old team Karachi Kings, Salman Iqbal, gave a statement raising a question mark on Babur. The owner of Karachi Kings claimed that Babar Azam was dropped out of the team because he was not ready to change his position. Salman Iqbal claimed that Babar Azam just wanted to start with the turn and was not ready to change his batting position. Salman Iqbal accused Babar Azam of being selfish, in an interview, “We wanted Babur to bat at number three. There were good openers in the team at the time and we wanted Babur to bat at number three, but Babur refused. Therefore, we had to forcibly remove them from the team. Babar Azam’s strike rate Babar Azam scored more than 3 thousand runs in IPL, but the strike rate of this player is less than 130. Babur scored 3103 runs in PSL at an average of over 47 and his strike rate is 129.13. Babur scored 29 half -owned and 2 centuries in PSL. Babar Azam is now the captain of Peshawar Jalmi and his performance this season was very poor. The player couldn’t even open his account against Quetta and he could only score one run against Islamabad United. Babar Azam scored a century against Nepal in 2023 and since then he has not been able to record a century in international cricket. Babur’s condition is bad. Babar Azam recently failed in the ODI series in South Africa and New Zealand. Even in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, he did not score large runs with his bat. He scored only 64 runs against New Zealand. Now it has become difficult for him to score in PSL as well. Share this story -Tags
