Babar Azam biography, age, height, wife, family, etc.
Babar Azam is a Great Pakistani batsman. He is the most talented Pakistani batsman in Pakistan’s cricket history. Babar is playing in all formats of crickets. He is a perfect batsman for any cricket format.
Babar is the no.1 T20 batsman in the world nowadays. He comes to bat at no.3 or no. 4. Sometimes he plays as an opener in the team when required. He has great batting talent. Babar is known in the top batsman of the world. He is also the vice-captain of the Pakistan cricket team in all formats.
Babar Azam was born on 15 October 1994. Now in 2019, he is about 25 years old. He is a young man and has a lot of time to become a great batsman. Babar still played 71 ODI matches and he made 11 centuries and 15 half-centuries which are great. He also made a single hundred in test cricket.
Babar has still unmarried. He has just one brother named Safeer Azam and has no sister. The father’s name of Babar is Azam Siddique. Babar is the cousin of Umar Akmal, Kamran Akmal and Adnan Akmal.
Babar Azam vs Virat Kohli
No doubt Virat Kohli is a great batsman and a good captain. If we compare Virat Kohli and Babar Azam in ODI cricket we found that Babar has more records in ODI cricket. Babar made his 11th century in his 71st ODI match but if we talk about Virat Kohli he made his 11th century in the 73rd match. Both the batsman are great and have different records but Babar needs more time to compete Virat Kohli in all formats of cricket.
If we talk about the stats figure then Babar is much better than Virat Kohli in ODI and T20 cricket. But Virat Kohli played so many matches where he handles the pressure and gives a great win to his team in critical situations. Babar is also a good batsman but he needs more time to become the greatest batsman in the world. I think that soon Babar will be more popular then Viral Kohli.
