Pakistan skipper Babar Azam and his deputy Mohammad Rizwan are set to become the first cricketers from the country to join Harvard Business School’s executive education program.

Babar Azam revealed of having coined the ‘Chacha’ nickname for Iftikhar Ahmad and the Pakistan captain praised the middle-order batter after his unbeaten 72-ball 95 went in vain during Pakistan’s 47-run loss against New Zealand in fifth and final ODI in Karachi on Sunday.

The hosts beat a depleted New Zealand 4-1 in the five-match series and on their way briefly reached the top of the one-day rankings for the first time.

Technique, temperament, consistency — Babar is now a complete cricketer, which is why former Pakistan batter and Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) president Ramiz Raja has drawn comparisons with Don Bradman, the greatest cricketer of all time.

Babar Azam scored a superb century Friday to help lift Pakistan to the top of the one-day international rankings for the first time in history after a thumping 102-run victory in the fourth match against New Zealand in Karachi.

Pakistan skipper Babar Azam on Friday became the fastest batter to complete 5,000 one-day international runs during the fourth match against New Zealand in Karachi.

Khan, a former cricketer who led Pakistan in the World Cup win in 1992, termed Babar as an outstanding batter, while highlighting his impressive batting prowess.

The 58-ball ton was Babar's third T20I ton. Notably, he is the only Pakistan batter with more than one hundred in the format. The hundred puts Babar close to the top of the list of batters with most T20I tons

Pakistan all-rounder Iftikhar Ahmed carried his brilliant batting form from the Bangladesh Premier League back to his country as he took the caretaker sports minister of Punjab, Pakistan, Wahab Riaz to the cleaners smashing six sixes in an over in an exhibition match between Pakistan Super League sides Quetta Gladiators and Peshawar Zalmi at the Bugti Stadium in Quetta on Sunday.

It's hard to believe that Babar Azam even further elevated his game during 2022 as the inspirational skipper broke more individual records and ensured Pakistan's star continued to shine brightly.

There were match-winning knocks, spell-binding stroke-play and memorable moments from a personal perspective and his team in 2022 as Pakistan skipper Babar Azam claimed the ICC Men’s ODI Cricketer of the Year Award for a second consecutive year.

Indian media is awash with articles on how Pakistan cricket captain Babar Azam was allegedly "sexting" another player's girlfriend. The problem: it's false news that originated in a "joke" tweet from a parody account.
