Babar Azam Faces 500-600 Balls While Practicing

Babar Azam, a renowned skipper from Pakistan has finally shared the secret of his success. He says that he strongly believes in “practice makes a man perfect.”

During an interview, the right-handed batter said that he takes his game very seriously and plays around 500-600 balls while practicing. He added that he doubles this number when he is not playing.

Babar Azam said, “I think you can only perform in the match when you practice hard. I play 500-600 balls daily during my practice. Even double balls when I am out of form. I believe practice is so important for anyone who wants to perform on the ground.”

Azam was recently declared ICC Cricketer of the Year for his exceptional performance in the year 2022. He believes in improving his performance and is not afraid of criticism. He said, “Criticism is always there, whether you perform or not. Everyone has their own opinion.”

He further added, “I think when you find any fault in your batting, it takes some time. People want things to get right immediately, which is not possible.”

Babar Azam’s father has played a great role in his success and the 28-year-old cricketer acknowledges this. Azam said, “My father rarely gets satisfied with my performance because he doesn’t want me to take things for granted. He always tries to give me some advice so that I can get better and better. Now, he sometimes praises me. But I think it’s good for you that your elders keep guiding you and want more from you.”
