You are 100% right. Off late, so called paid journalists have started promoting average batters and bowlers like Babar, Shaheen etc unnecessarily. They have forgotten that:
Imran Khan has been the overall greatest player, Captain and all rounder we produced.
Javed Miandad has been the best batsman we ever produced.
Wasim Akram has been the best bowler we ever produced.
Since Javed Miandad has gone old and doesnβt appear much on media, it doesnβt mean that we forget that for more than 2 decades, he single handedly played numerous matching winning conditions against toughest opponents on toughest soil.
Mr. Babar Azam is not even 5% of Javed Miandad.
@shahidtrimzi@Irfanooq Then there was a game vs India in Perth where he was unplayable too 3/13 in 9 over. And then Hobart he was at it again 3/13 in 8 and then at MCG 4/25
Vintage Wasim Akram vs Peak Brian Lara not just a contest, but a clash between two cricketing masterpieces.
Ultimate left-arm pace magician taking on one of the most naturally gifted left-handed batters the game has ever seen. Every ball was a challenge, every shot an answer.
When legends stood face-to-face, the real winner was cricket itself. ππ₯
