Babar Azam and his ongoing battle against slow left-arm spinners is a never-ending love story. With the World Cup set to kick off tomorrow, Pakistan’s one and only hope seems to rest on the shoulders of Babar Azam.
However, his weakness against left-arm spinners, who have claimed his wicket numerous times, poses a significant concern. For Pakistan to secure a spot in the top 4 of the World Cup, it is imperative that Babar Azam finds his form, as we observed in the warm-up matches where he played splendid innings scoring 80s and 90s. Yet, the World Cup will bring formidable left-arm spinners to challenge him, such as India’s Kuldeep Yadav, Sri Lanka’s Dunith Wellalage, Afghanistan’s Noor Ahmad, and New Zealand’s Mitchell Santner.

It’s not that Babar Azam is not preparing to face left-arm spinners; in fact, he is leaving no stone unturned in his preparations. He has even made a special request to the Hyderabad cricket association, where Pakistan is set to play two World Cup matches, to arrange practice sessions against left-arm spinners so that he can be fully prepared for the challenge.
The question remains: how will Babar Azam’s preparation impact Pakistan’s World Cup campaign? It’s undeniable that if Pakistan is to progress in the tournament, Babar Azam must find his form. The nation waits with bated breath to see how Babar Azam’s efforts will unfold in this cricket extravaganza.
