🚨 SALMAN ALI AGHA ON HIS CELEBRATION! 🤫❤️

"I don't have that much time to convey any message to anyone or to prove anyone wrong. I love my cricket, I love batting, I love playing for Pakistan. That celebration was simply... my baby watches television like that, so it was just for him."

[M Farhan @MFarhan1200]

🚨 BABAR AZAM: 2019 VS 2026 📉🏏

- A stark comparison of Babar Azam's technique against the short ball over the years:

🛑 2019 Babar: Back in 2019, when Babar played the short ball, his movement was wonderfully fluid and he was brilliant against it. Because he was leaner, his body movement and reaction time were lightning fast.

🛑 2026 Babar: Fast forward to 2026, dealing with short balls has become a notable struggle. The quick body movement isn't quite the same, and he often fails to tackle the ball on time.

- This is a major concern keeping the 2027 ODI World Cup in mind. Babar really needs to work hard on his fitness, particularly focusing on handling the short ball.
