After a poor run of form over the past few months, Babar sprung back in the ongoing T20I series against New Zealand. Despite Pakistan losing all three matches so far, Babar showcased his class, smashing three half-centuries at a solid strike rate.
It should be noted that the Pakistan Super League (PSL) is set to begin from February 17 and the former world number one T20I batter will lead the Peshawar Zalmi side.
Zalmi will face Quetta Gladiators in the second game of the PSL 9 and will look to take off to a good start in their quest to win the title once more. Their last PSL trophy came in 2017, almost seven years ago.
