LAHORE: Former Pakistan cricket team captain, Babar Azam, has returned to the practice nets as he prepares for the upcoming challenging tour of Australia, where Pakistan is set to play three Test matches. This development follows Babar's significant decision to step down as captain after Pakistan's disappointing exit from the World Cup 2023.
Babar Azam, known for his prolific batting, achieved remarkable milestones during his captaincy, becoming the fastest player to score 1,000 runs in ODI cricket for Pakistan. Additionally, he became the first Pakistani batsman to score three consecutive centuries in ODIs. Under his leadership, Pakistan briefly held the number one spot in the ICC One Day International rankings.
Despite the team's dip in performance leading to a group stage exit in the World Cup, Babar Azam remains committed to his team and the sport. His decision to return to the nets and prepare for the Australia tour reflects his determination to contribute as a player.
Babar shared a glimpse of his net session on social media, captioning it with the words "Back in harness." This phrase encapsulates his resolute spirit and eagerness to move forward, showcasing his commitment to continue making valuable contributions to the Pakistan cricket team. As Babar Azam resumes training, cricket enthusiasts eagerly anticipate his performance in the upcoming series against Australia.
