Former Indian opener Virender Sehwag has sparked a heated debate by stating that Babar Azam doesn’t deserve a place in Pakistan’s T20 team. Sehwag, known for his outspoken nature, declared, “I may sound harsh, but Babar Azam has been struggling in T20s for a long time now.”

Sehwag’s criticism comes amidst Babar’s recent slump in form, a far cry from his dominant performances in the past. While he remains Pakistan’s captain in all three formats, his struggles in the shortest format have raised concerns ahead of the upcoming T20 World Cup.

Sehwag’s statement:

“Babar has not been able to score runs consistently in T20s. He’s not been able to adapt to the fast-paced game and his strike rate is a concern. If you’re not contributing, you should make way for someone who can.”

The debate:

Sehwag’s harsh words have sparked a debate amongst fans and pundits alike. While some agree with his assessment, others argue that Babar’s experience and leadership qualities are invaluable to the team.

Babar’s future:

With the T20 World Cup looming, Pakistan’s selectors face a tough decision. Should they stick with Babar, hoping for a turnaround in form, or explore other options? This question will continue to dominate the conversation as the tournament approaches.

Only time will tell if Sehwag’s criticism will have any impact on Babar’s future in Pakistan’s T20 team. The world will be watching closely as Pakistan prepares for the T20 World Cup, and Babar’s form will be a key factor in their success.
