Babar Azam, the captain of Pakistan’s cricket team, has had a remarkable career since debuting in a One-Day International against Zimbabwe eight years ago.

He has topped the ICC ODI Batting Rankings and received prestigious awards such as the Sir Garfield Sobers Trophy for ICC Men’s Cricketer of the Year and the ICC Men’s ODI Cricketer of the Year award twice. As he prepares to complete a century of matches in Pakistan’s upcoming fifth ODI against New Zealand, Babar reflects on his career and the factors contributing to his success.

I always believed in my team's ability to achieve it, AlhumduLillah.

Keep us all in your prayers. 🙏 pic.twitter.com/C3e25TDeGu

In an interview with PCB Digital, Babar recalled his challenges as a young cricketer, including being separated from his family during pivotal moments. However, he credited his family’s support, particularly his mother’s purchase of his first cricket bat and equipment and his father’s encouragement, for helping him reach the pinnacle of his sport.

"The best thing about this unit is that we rejoice in each other's accomplishments" 💚

Babar also mentioned the crucial role that then-head coach Mickey Arthur played in his transformation into a reliable stroke-maker. Arthur’s confidence in Babar and other team members was instrumental in developing a strong Pakistani cricket team.

After taking on the captaincy in 2019, Babar has successfully balanced his responsibilities as a player and team leader. He emphasized the importance of clear communication and taking responsibility for fostering a positive team environment. As a captain, he has maintained an impressive ODI average of 73.72.

In the 4️⃣6️⃣th edition of the PCB Podcast, @babarazam258 talks in detail about his cricketing journey ahead of his 1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣th ODI appearance.
