Babar Azam is over hyped in t20is

[QuarantineTormentino]

Batting Stats in t20is:

 

Average/Strike rate:

 

Manish Pandey - 44/126

Babar - 43/129

 

 Kohli in his worst form is still better than Babar lmao

 

[Chakdephatte]

Manish Pandey comparison had me dying 

Surprisingly a good match for him. They don't have anything to show expect that 44 average.

Rizwan strike rate is also in mid 120s. In this Asia cup 120 as well.

Yeah, Rizwan is to t20is what Shai Hope is to   ODIs

[putrevus]

Nonsense, he is very good batsman who serves their team very well. Pakistan has lower order batsmen who can go for leather from ball one.Those lower order batsman also don't have ability to last more than few overs.

 

Both Azam and Rizwan work for Pakistan.They might not now work for other teams.Pakistan t20 team is very well balanced especially for UAE pitches.

 

 

[Ankit_sharma03]

he is

he is

he is 

 

Their best player are shadab and shaheen in t20 

Rizwan is a keeper so he also offers more value and heard is captaincy is also much better 

Nawaz is another who is showing great value

Then Rauf

 

They ll come above babar

Babar is wayy better than him. Slowest batsman since Rahane.

Not Salty. Pant is also under criticism for the same reason. Mid 120 strike rate is poor.  KL Rahul is also criticized for low strike rate in this Asia cup

Don't compare Pant to either Rizwan or Azam. They play totally different roles for their teams. Pant is failure in t20s , where the Pakistani duo are very good for their team.It is not Pant's fault he is not suited for middle order.

Thank you for ceeating this thread before the final and the world cup, ab when he thrashes india in melbourne tou will be a good read.

He's a consistent batsmen. Does not have that extra gear that great white ball batsmen  have. Does not matter in tests so he can still be a terrific test batsmen. His technique is superb.

Deepak Hooda will trap him lbw in his first over

[Gollum]

Babar is weak in T20s

Rizwan weak in ODIs

Pant in T20s

Smith/Root/Kane in T20s

etc.

 

Very tough for batsmen to master all 3 formats in this age. Only going to get tougher as we see more divergence.

Very good batsman but not for T20’s. Rahane level player and that’s a compliment. If he has half the career of Rahane in tests and given his odi records which is his strong suit, a pretty good world class player.

 

already bloating up so let’s see how long it lasts but I do enjoy watching him bat. Very elegant batsman.

[vvvslaxman]

Babar not being an enforcer is no surprise. He is a slightly built guy with more text book approach.  Can make some quick runs inside power play. But power game is not his forte. If he tries to bat like Afridi he will regress in all formats. Saeed Anwar was also a small guy. But he had this strong forehands and wrists with which he could flick balls for six.

Fine let’s wish he has the long and successful career of a 61 averaging Adam Voges.
