Babar Azam Is A 'Different Gravy' Right Now In The T20 World Cup, Says Graeme Swann
Former England off-spinner Graeme Swann believes that Pakistan skipper Babar Azam is 'at the minute a different gravy with the bat'. He added that Azam is a seriously good player, so is his opening partner Mohammad Rizwan. Azam (68 not out off 52 balls) and Rizwan (79 not out off 55 balls) had an unbeaten opening partnership of 152, handing India a ten-wicket thrashing at the ICC Men's T20 World Cup in Dubai on Sunday. It was the first time ever that Pakistan won against India across all editions of the men's T20 World Cup.
"Babar Azam at the minute is a different gravy with the bat. For ages in England, we kept saying why Joe Root is not part of the famous big three. I mean, you have Virat Kohli, Kane Williamson, and Steve Smith and then it became the big four. Now Pakistan fans would say hang on a minute… I saw him score a century at Edgbaston. Oh my word, he is a seriously good player. And his partner at the other end, little Rizzy, he can bat as well," Swann was quoted as saying by cricket.com on Monday.
