At a sudden event, Babar Azam is getting the prize from the KFC Big Bash League, as they mentioned that he is the king and king of classic drives. The Big Bash League is sponsored by KFC, and it is one of the best leagues in cricket. Big Bash League is more authentic than the IPL; that is a fact, as their pitches are more balanced and there is no chance that it will be a one-sided match.
The pitches that Australia makes are to have a fair game; that is why they are able to produce great players with excellent skills. If you look at their players' averages, they are not that good, and it is mostly like 39 to 45 runs on average for the batsmen. This is due to the tough batting conditions in Australia. That is why they are able to play their best game at important events, like the ICC World Cup 2023, where India was beaten by Australia.
Babar Azam joining the Sydney Sixers is a welcome sign, and it will allow him to develop his skills further, as he is lacking in playing fast innings, which is now required in one-day and T20 cricket. No matter what average he makes, the fact will remain that he has to work on strike rate and how to play aggressive cricket. Nowadays, even Test cricket is being played fast, and batsmen make full use of the fielding gaps that the opposition provides. It is important that Babar Azam focus on weaknesses and concentrate on playing aggressively.
However, it is a fact that Babar Azam cannot become a batsman like Shahid Afridi in just one day, and it will take time to change the natural game. Moreover, if Babar Azam again wants to be selected in the T20 squad, then there is no doubt that Babar Azam will be required to fully utilize the BBL. If Babar Azam plays aggressive cricket, then it will ensure that Pakistani national selectors will be under pressure to select Babar Azam, and he will also have media support as well. However, it all depends on how aggressively and modernly Babar Azam plays now.
