"We have a new wicketkeeper in town," PCB says
December 12, 2021
Pakistan cricket captain Babar Azam is known across the globe for his brilliant batting skills, but the cricketer has some other hidden talents too.
In a recent video shared by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Twitter, the right-handed top-order batsman could be seen practising at the nets for the three-match T20I series against West Indies, which is set to take place in Karachi from Monday, December 13, 2021.
In the video, Babar displayed his stellar wicket-keeping skills, proving to his fans and competitors that he is, indeed, a multi-talented sportsman.
"We have a new wicketkeeper in town! #PAKvWI" the PCB wrote in the caption.
Reacting to the video, a user named Daniel Alexander wrote: "Can bat. Can bowl. Can lead, and now trying wicket-keeping too #KingBabarCrown.
Another fan wrote: "Oh Captain, My Captain [heart emoji]. King Babar Era, Alhamdulillah."
The West Indian cricket team arrived in Karachi Thursday to play three T20Is and the same number of ODIs against Pakistan. However, the team suffered a huge blow ahead of the series after it was confirmed that the touring cricketers, along with a non-coaching member of the squad, have tested positive for COVID-19 and are ruled out of the series.
