Tough Talk of Gautam Gambhir on Pakistan Team Captain Babar Azam

Despite the fact that Babar Azam scored a half-century in the match against India, he was not able to help his team post a good total. A former player of Indian cricket team Gautam Gambhir, who is also a member of the 2007 T20 Cricket World Cup and 2011 ODI Cricket World Cup-winning teams, wants Babar Azam to make a wholesome change to his approach to cricket.
Gautam Gambhir said, “I feel Babar will have to change his personality, his game, and, importantly, his mindset. Pakistan has a history of attacking batters Shahid Afridi, Imran Nazir, Saeed Anwar, and Aamer Sohail. In the present top three, everyone bats in a similar mode. If someone has to take responsibility, it has to be their captain, who bats at No. 3.”
He further said, "There is no point looking at statistics."You may become Pakistan's leading run-getter, but a legacy is created by winning tournaments, not individual records. Wasim Akram took three wickets in the 1992 World Cup final. He did not pick up a five-fer, but everybody talks about it because they won the World Cup. Nobody talks about Mahela Jayawardene's hundred in the 2011 final. Everyone remembers that India won the match."
