Babar Azam, the captain of the Pakistan Cricket Team, is regarded as one of the best cricketers of the modern era because of all that he has already accomplished at such a young age. He just passed former Indian captain Virat Kohli to become the second-fastest Asian player to amass 12,000 runs in international cricket.
The milestone was reached in just 277 innings during the opening ODI against New Zealand, and he scored 49 runs for the team as well as the landmark. Meanwhile, Babar has gained a new fan in the form of 'Speed,' one of the most popular YouTube streamers and content producers who is also a devoted supporter of legendary footballer Cristiano Ronaldo.
However, the fans didn't have much time to rejoice since Speed; also one of Kohli's biggest supporters, unlocked Babar's Instagram inbox right away and sent him a voice message in which he yelled just Kohli's name. Following the release of the video, a lot of fans trolled Babar.
Babar Azam has an accomplished career at a young age
In terms of Test cricket, he has a strike rate of 55.02 and has scored 3696 runs at an average of 48.63. The Pakistani captain has scored 17 ODI centuries and 900 Test centuries. His go-to shot in international cricket is the cover drive, and Babar's cover drive frequently resembles Virat Kohli's. Kane Williamson remarked that Babar has a very impressive cover drive that is entertaining to watch in an interview with Harsha Bhogle on Cricbuzz.
In the ongoing one-day international series between Pakistan and New Zealand, the Men in Green are up 2-0 over the Blackcaps. In the next T20I series, it led to a 2-2 tie. One of the T20 international matches had to be cancelled due to hail. Making sure Pakistan has a wonderful 50-over World Cup in India will be Babar's next goal.
Here's how fans reacted to Speed's funny video:
