To get back into form, Virender Sehwag advises Babar Azam to “play domestic cricket.”

To help Pakistan’s standout batter Babar Azam find his best form again, former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag has advised him to play domestic cricket.

Babar’s poor recent performances have put him under intense scrutiny. A disappointing home Test series against Bangladesh last month saw him fall out of the top ten in the ICC Test Batting Rankings, managing a pitiful 64 runs in four innings.

Following his 35-run two-inning performance in the opening Test match against England, he was left from the team for the rest of the series.

The Shan Masood-led squad leveled the three-match series and won their first Test at home since February 2021 as they defeated England by 152 runs while Babar was suspended.

When Virender Sehwag spoke on former Pakistani pacer Shoaib Akhtar’s YouTube channel, he discussed Babar Azam’s recent troubles and gave him advice to play domestic cricket to get back in form.

“Aber Azam ought to start playing cricket at home right now. In order to return to international cricket as a physically and psychologically better player, Sehwag advised him to focus on improving his fitness and spend some time with his family.

The former Indian all-rounder stated the opinion that Babar’s playing style and the expectations of the supporters have affected his mental condition, which has affected his performance on an individual basis.

“Babar seems to have been more affected mentally than technically, as evidenced by his resignation as captain and the decline in expectations placed on him,” he continued.

Sehwag voiced his confidence that Babar would be able to mount a successful comeback if he maintains his mental toughness and acknowledged Babar’s extraordinary skill.

His mental fortitude must not waver. Players like him tend to recover quickly, and he is a terrific player,” he said in closing.

Details indicate that PIA published a report on aircraft struck by birds in 2022.

53 bird-hit instances were documented between January and October, and four incidents were logged in November, the study states. The airport in Lahore International was the site of most of the incidents.
