Fakhar Zaman's backing of Babar Azam is a significant show of support, and his own performance in the tri-nation series has been impressive, with a top score of 78 runs against New Zealand, demonstrating his own capabilities as a key player in the team.
Pakistan opener Fakhar Zaman has expressed confidence in the abilities of struggling batsman Babar Azam, who has not scored a century since August 2023, citing his "class and legacy" as reasons for his optimism.
Fakhar Zaman, who was promoted to open the innings alongside Azam in the tri-nation ODI series, top-scored for Pakistan in their crushing defeat to New Zealand, scoring 78 runs.

Zaman shared his excitement about Pakistan's upcoming campaign in the ICC Champions Trophy but emphasized that the team's current focus remains on the ongoing series. He believes that Babar Azam will find his rhythm in upcoming matches, and his confidence in Azam's abilities is unwavering.
With Pakistan's next match approaching, Zaman's words of encouragement for Babar Azam are a welcome boost to the team's morale. As the team looks to bounce back from their defeat, Zaman's optimism and confidence in his teammate's abilities will be crucial in their upcoming matches.
