He acknowledged that an India-Pakistan match is always the most talked-about event, capturing the attention of cricket enthusiasts worldwide.
The pressure is immense, and nerves are bound to play a role. But Babar’s message to his team is clear: play easy cricket, believe in your skills, and stay composed.
“The whole world is focused on the day when the India-Pakistan match is held. Naturally, there will be nerves, but we need to keep our focus, stick to the basics, and play easy cricket. It is always a pressure game; the more you keep cool and calm, believe in your skills and hard work, then things get easier,” Babar Azam said.
