Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Babar Azam
Before the start of ICC ODI World Cup 2023, everyone was expecting that Pakistan team would see better performance in the mega event. However, this tournament proved to be no less than a nightmare for the Pakistan team under the captaincy of Babar Azam. The team also had to face a big defeat by 8 wickets in the match against Afghanistan. Regarding this match, wicketkeeper batsman Rahmanullah Gurbaz, a member of the Afghan team, has now revealed that when he came to shake hands with Babar after the match, he appeared very emotional at that time. Let us tell you that after this match, Babar had also given a bat to Gurbaz as a gift.
Babar was almost crying
In this match, Rahmanullah Gurbaz played an important inning of 65 runs in 53 balls with the help of 9 fours and one six. Talking about this match in a video, Gurbaz said that after the defeat, Babar Azam became so emotional that he was almost about to cry. Although he composed himself, he continued to face a lot of criticism for the team’s poor performance during the tournament in India. Gurbaz further said in his statement that I will never be able to forget that match. After the match was over, when I asked Babar for the bat, he looked very disappointed when he brought it. As a player I can understand his situation. I know how it feels when you lose a match in such circumstances.
He is one of the best players and captains
The Afghan player further said in this video that I remember that I too became very emotional after seeing Babar. Believe me, I don’t want to say this in front of the camera, but I want to say that he was about to cry. He is one of the best players and captains and I have not seen a player like this. At that time there were many people against him, despite this he continued to move forward with full strength.
