Cricket fans have reason to celebrate as Pakistan's star batter Babar Azam receives strong backing from his Sydney Sixers teammate Josh Philippe ahead of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026.
Despite a challenging start in the Big Bash League (BBL) 2025-26 with low scores, Philippe believes Babar will soon rediscover his world-class touch on Australia's bouncy pitches.
"He's a world-class player. A couple of games under the belt, a few more sessions, he'll be absolutely fine. His record is outstanding. I have no doubt he'll be in the runs next game." – Josh Philippe
With the T20 World Cup 2026 (co-hosted by India and Sri Lanka) just months away, Babar's form in BBL is crucial for Pakistan's preparations. His current ICC T20I ranking at 31st has raised concerns, but this vote of confidence from an Australian teammate is a positive sign.
