Peshawar Zalmi President and legendary Pakistan cricketer Inzamamul Haq has extended his support to skipper Babar Azam, expressing confidence that the star batter will return to form soon, despite recent struggles in the ongoing Pakistan Super League (PSL) season.
In a conversation with former PCB chairman Ramiz Raja following Zalmi’s clash with Lahore Qalandars, Inzamam remarked that ups and downs are a natural part of any cricketer’s journey.
“Failures come in a player’s career. Babar has had a long and successful career so far, and expectations are always high whenever he steps onto the field,” said Inzamam. “He’s working on his technique, and I have no doubt that he’ll bounce back strongly.”
Inzamam also advised Babar Azam should not worry for strike rate for scoring runs.
When asked about Peshawar Zalmi’s overall performance in PSL 10, Inzamam acknowledged the team’s struggles but remained optimistic about their prospects.
“As a team, we haven’t performed up to the mark yet. But the players are energetic and motivated. The squad has a strong combination and self-belief, and I’m confident things will turn around,” he added.
