Babar focuses on keeping his ICC ranking intact under pressure: Kaneria

Ex-Pakistan spinner Danish Kaneria stated that Babar Azam "is playing for himself", adding, "When he is under pressure, he focuses on keeping his stats and ICC ranking intact." "I've scored a fifty, I've done it. But where is the intent of winning the match for Pakistan?" Kaneria questioned. Babar scored 64(90) against New Zealand in the Champions Trophy 2025 opener.
