Babar Azam 9th T20I Duck: In the second ODI against Sri Lanka, Babar Azam ended the drought of century. But after few days of this knock, he has entered the list where no Pakistani fans never wanted him to be.
Babar Azam 9th T20I Duck
In the opener game of T20I tri-series against Zimbabwe in Rawalpindi on November 18, Tuesday the star batter was out on duck, trapped on a LBW for three ball by Brad Evans in the chase of 148 that Pakistan won by five wickets. This dimissal of Babar Azam helped him surpassed the record of Shahid Afridi for the most ducks by a Pakistan batter in T20Is.
Ninth Duck By Babar Azam
The recent failure of Babar Azam registeres his ninth duck in T20Is. Before this, Afridi stands at this list of second highest duck by a Pakistan batter in T20Is, and with this duck Babar has surpassed the unwanted knock.
Most Ducks By A Pakistan Batter In T20Is
1. Saim Ayub – 10
2. Umar Akmal – 10
3. Babar Azam – 9
4. Shahid Afridi – 8
5. Kamran Akmal – 7
6. Mohammad Hafeez – 7
Saim Ayub tops the list with Umar Akmal of most T20I ducks, which is now followed by Babar Azam with 9 ducks, Afridi on eight, Kamran Akmal, and Mohammad Hafeez 7 ducks. It looks like Pakistan’s modern day batting has decided to register their names in the unwanted list where no batter wish never to visit.
Babar Azam Poor Form In T20Is
This duck of Babar Azam was his third in his last six T20I innings, a thing which has become a topic of serious dicussion in Pakistan. Earlier, his T20I carrer was defined by records with very few failures but now the things has completely changed.
At the same time it is believed that he has played more T20Is than most of teh successful batters, which also increases his chances of most ducks. But Saim Ayub is a youngster and still tops the list with 10 ducks. Currently, Pakistan star batters are trying their best to make a comeback in the T20I but eventually gettig failed.
For Pakistan the concerns will rise if the same continues as the T20 World Cup 2026 is approaching. Their most experienced batter is going through rough forms and if this continues there is no doubt that he might get dropped from the team soon which was actually happened in the Asia Cup 2025.
