Ex-Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi, during an online interview, said that he initially believed that Pakistan limited-overs captain Babar Azam won't be able to survive in T20 Cricket. "But the way that guy has polished and groomed himself. The shots he plays...it is always hard work," Afridi added. Babar has played 38 T20Is, scoring 1,471 runs at an average of 50.72.
