Babar Azam, the captain of Pakistan, was born on October 15, 1994, in Lahore, Pakistan. He is currently one of the most productive and reliable batters in international cricket. With his steady achievements across all formats over the past few years, the right-handed batter is currently regarded as one of the greatest players of the modern era, along with Virat Kohli of India, Steven Smith of Australia, Joe Root of England, and Kane Williamson of New Zealand.

In 2015, the Men in Green’s one-day international encounter against Zimbabwe in Harare marked the 28-year-old’s debut for the team. He played against England the following year in Manchester in the shortest international format for the first time. Against the West Indies in Dubai (DSC), Babar wore the White Jersey for the first time that year.

Babar Azam simply kept getting better after making his ODI debut, eventually joining that team as a permanent member. He consistently scored runs, which made him one of the most important and necessary players in the lineup. Despite having established himself early in his ODI career, Babar’s 360-run performance against the West Indies in a three-match bilateral series in the United Arab Emirates in 2016 was his most memorable accomplishment.

The ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 action will continue on Tuesday, October 10 at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad, as Pakistan and Sri Lanka square off in Match 8. Pakistan entered the match having defeated the Netherlands in their opening match by a score of 81 runs.

Early in the innings, the Babar Azam-led team was in trouble as they were reeling at 38/3 after 9.1 overs. However, courageous runs by Mohammad Rizwan (68 off 75) and Saud Shakeel (68 off 52) helped their side to 286. Haris Rauf shone with the ball, tallying 3/43 in nine overs.

In contrast, Sri Lanka was thoroughly defeated by South Africa in their opening game, losing by a huge margin of 102 runs. The bowling attack of Sri Lanka was decimated by the combination of Quinton de Kock, Rassie van der Dussen, and Aiden Markram, who also recorded the highest team total in World Cup history (428/5).

At Hyderabad’s Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Game 6 of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 pits New Zealand against the Netherlands. New Zealand scored a staggering score of 322/7 in their allotted 50 overs after being given the opportunity to bat first by Netherlands captain Scott Edwards. Rachin Ravindra (51 off 51), Tom Latham (53 off 46), and Will Young all struck half-centuries for the Kiwis.

Mitchell Santner contributed a late surge to the innings as well, scoring 36* off 17 balls in a magnificent cameo that included three fours and two sixes. The southpaw made the most of Bas de Leede’s final over of the innings by hitting him for back-to-back sixes off the final two deliveries. As he crushed a soaring full throw for a maximum over deep point in his opening six, the crowd was on the edge of their seats. The delivery was flagged as a no ball because it was beyond waist height, giving Santer a free hit on the following ball.

The tailender took full advantage of it by whistling it over long on for another enormous six to finish things off in style. Paul van Meekeren jokingly thanks Daryl Mitchell for not hitting him during NZ vs. NED game.

Former England cricketer Steve Harmison has attacked the International Cricket Council (ICC) for only allowing nations to name 15 players for the current ODI World Cup roster restriction. For instance, England took the difficult decision to bench starter Jason Roy in favor of Harry Brook.

Steve Harmison contends that each team should have had access to at least 18 players for their squad and that each team ought to have been compelled to play a minimum of nine games in ten different stadiums. The famous pacer anticipates that England would need to deploy more than 15 players during the competition because teams are permitted to use reserves if an injury stops a regular player from competing.

“A squad can only contain 15 men, and I find it to be a mystery. With internal flights, hotels, and all the other associated expenses, England has nine games scheduled in eight different locations. England will require more than 15 players, according to Harmison.

Peter Handscomb, the wicketkeeper-batsman for Australia, is determined to play every Test match in the middle order regardless of the situation in order to avoid earning the reputation as a subcontinent specialist. He is conscious, though, that he must wait and continue to perform well for Victoria in the Sheffield Shield.

On Wednesday, October 4, in Perth, the 32-year-old will start a fresh Shield season against defending champions Western Australia. He participated in all four of Australia’s Test matches on their 2023 tour of India, making him the most recent Victorian hitter to play in the format. He excelled in India but was not included in the Ashes squad because selectors still saw him as a subcontinent specialist.

He indicated that he would prefer to represent Australia in Test matches at home. He added that he has strong numbers for Victoria but is aware that making the national team will be difficult.

“I would like to play several tests at home. I play cricket here for half the year for Victoria, batting Nos. 3 and 4. Over the past few years, I’ve also fared quite well. The figures are favorable. There must be openings as well, so I must just maintain supporting it and then see if you can get a crack. Especially in Australia, the Test team is currently quite strong. Thus, it’s challenging to join that group, according to Handscomb, as stated by ESPNcricinfo.

With just a few days till the eagerly anticipated ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, former India head coach Ravi Shastri thinks Suryakumar Yadav could be crucial for the team captained by Rohit Sharma. On October 8 in Chennai, India will face Australia to begin their campaign.

Suryakumar, who Ravi Shastri feels to be the X-factor since he can win games for India at the ICC international tournament, would be a player to watch, according to Shastri.

I’ll be keeping a very careful eye on him. Since you have 6-7-8 players and your top order is performing well, you will either play him or Shreyas Iyer at this time. However, if every batter is scoring runs, that player becomes the deciding factor in a crucial game and might give you the victory. Because of the damage he can create with Hardik at 6-7-8, they can simply win the game by eliminating the opposition in the final 6-7 overs. Shastri said ESPNCricinfo, “I can assume that your batting is failing, but it’s not the case. So that’s the X factor you’ve got to think of.

At the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi, Sri Lanka will open its 2023 World Cup campaign against South Africa on October 7. Due to its diminishing record in International Cricket Council (ICC) competitions, expectations for the island squad are not high for the forthcoming World Cup.
