It seems that Babar Azam's bad phase is going to last long. Babar Azam's bat has been silent for the last two years. Some big tournaments and series came out during this period but Babar Azam could not give any major contribution to Pakistan. However, despite this, there was no more serious challenge about his place in the team for some time. But now Babar Azam's career in the Pakistani team is seen to be over and it will cause 44 balls.

The Pakistani team's performance in the Champions Trophy 2025 was very poor. The team was out of the tournament in the first round itself.

After this, the T20 team was selected for the tour of New Zealand, then stars like captain Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam were dropped. Both were opening for the team earlier, but this time they were dropped and now their return doors are almost closed in the team.

The Pakistani team, who went with some youth and some new faces on New Zealand tour, suffered a crushing defeat in the first 2 matches of the series. But in the third match, this team made a strong comeback to win by 9 wickets by scoring 207 runs in just 16 overs. Young opener Hasan Nawaz, who was the star of this victory, also failed to open an account in the first and second matches.

Due to this, the fans of Babar Azam were constantly trolling him on social media and claiming that nothing can happen to the Pakistani team without Babur.

But now Hasan Nawaz has proved that not only the Pakistani team can win without Babar Azam, but can also play the T20 cricket of that style, which is the need of time. The 22 -year -old opener, playing his third T20 match, scored an explosive century in just 44 balls and gave the Pakistani team the first win on the tour. This batsman played an unbeaten innings of 105 runs in 45 balls, which had 10 fours and 7 sixes.

It also proved to be the fastest century in T20 International from Pakistan.

Apparently Pakistani fans had not seen such opening batting in T20 cricket in the last few years as Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan had become notorious to give a slow start. At the same time, other teams of the world had gone far ahead in this matter. But now the blind batsmen like Hasan Nawaz and Mohammad Haris have proved that the Pakistani team does not need Babar Azam or Rizwan in this format. Now if Babar Azam's T20 career ends in the Pakistani team, then it should not be surprising.
