Harbhajan Singh takes a dig at Babar Azam, saying he can’t cause damage.”
Harbhajan Singh is not a fan of Babar Azam’s limited-overs cricket skills as he thinks the Pakistan captain fails to dominate oppositions. However, despite Singh’s opinion, Babar has been able to win the ICC ODI Cricketer of the Year award for the last two years.
During an interview with a YouTube channel, former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh expressed his opinion on Babar Azam’s cricket skills. He stated that Babar is better suited for Test cricket and not for T20s or even for the ODIs. Harbhajan suggested that during limited-overs matches, Pakistan should let Mohammad Rizwan take a single and bowl five deliveries to Babar as he won’t be able to cause damage. He also mentioned that there might be better players than Babar in Pakistan.
