With a solitary fifty to his title in the whole T20 World Cup 2022, Babar Azam‘s marketing campaign ended on a disappointing observe. While Babar did handle to steer the Pakistan group into the ultimate of the match, from a private perspective, his batting remained within the line of fireside. It was spinner Adil Rashid who dismissed Babar within the closing on Sunday after the Pakistan skipper didn’t learn a ‘googly’. Now, veteran Pakistani cricketer, Shoaib Malik has requested Babar to be taught ‘the right way to play googly’.

In a video on A Sports, Malik went to the intricate particulars of going through googlies. He gave a step-by-step clarification on the subject of making ready for such deliveries towards a spinner.

“Babar needs to make changes in his batting. If your legs are planted, you still manage against pacers. But you can’t play a spinner with planted legs. For example, Babar thought Rashid bowled him leg spin and prepared to play in the covers but since it was a googly, he could not do anything but get out,” Malik mentioned.

Even Pakistan’s former skipper Misbah-ul-Haq joined the dialogue and burdened the significance of enjoying in entrance when a batter is struggling to learn which supply is a leg-spin and which is a googly.

“If you are not able to read the bowl, never go to play this square off the wicket. Because once your bat goes out to play, it will land you in trouble. So if you are not able to understand it, just go and play straight. We have discussed this in Hasranga’s case as well but our batsmen play cut without reading the ball,” he mentioned.

Misbah additional mentioned that Babar must work on the artwork of sweeping deliveries from spinners as that helps in negating the menace to a big extent.

“I have said this many a times that you need to develop your sweep. Today, he could have played the ball sweeping but he doesn’t have this in his armoury,” he opined.
