Australian Big Bash League (BBL) team Sydney Sixers have announced a special “Babar Azam Fan Zone” to honour the Pakistani batting star and celebrate his global fan following.
The initiative comes ahead of the upcoming BBL season, with the Sixers aiming to engage cricket fans from Pakistan and around the world who admire Babar’s elegant batting style and sportsmanship.
According to the franchise, the fan zone will feature exclusive merchandise, meet-and-greet opportunities, and digital interactions where supporters can share messages for Babar. The move reflects the growing influence of Pakistani cricketers in international T20 leagues.
Team officials praised Babar Azam’s impact on world cricket, calling him one of the most consistent and respected batsmen of the modern era. They said the fan zone is a tribute to his contribution to the game and his massive popularity among cricket lovers.
