There is a fault in Babar Azam’s technique related to his setup and stance. His trigger movement is slightly off, which could be because he wants to avoid getting bowled or LBW, but if he can correct that he can get into a better position and dominate the bowlers even more.
The former cricketer also expressed his hope that head coach, Misbah-ul-Haq, will be aware of the issue and will be working on fixing it. If Misbah can get it addressed, Babar will be ‘an even bigger threat’ for the bowlers.
