Asia Cup 2023: In the world of cricket, every game is a big show, and every player’s performance is closely watched by fans and reviewers. Cricket fans had been looking forward to the match between Pakistan and Sri Lanka at the Asia Cup 2023. At the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo, the stage was set for the Super Four game between two strong teams. But in the middle of all the excitement and expectation, the Pakistani captain, Babar Azam, got the worst of the social media trolls after a bad game.
Pakistan won the toss and chose to bat first to start the day. They faced the difficulties set by the Sri Lankan bowlers and, despite a few hiccups along the way, put up a tough score of 252/7 in 42 overs. Given that rain stopped the game and messed up the flow, this was an especially amazing feat.
Pakistan’s innings didn’t get off to a good start because they lost their first three wickets after scoring only 100 runs. Their best batter and team captain, Babar Azam, was one of those who got out early. Babar showed how good he was at hitting by scoring 151 runs against Nepal in the first game of the event. Since then, he hasn’t been able to do that again.
Thursday’s game against Sri Lanka was another test for the leader, who is 28 years old. He faced 35 balls, but he was only able to add 29 runs to the team’s total. This disappointing performance was the latest in a string of low scores he has had recently, which has worried Pakistan’s cricketers and fans alike.

In the digital age we live in now, people share their quick thoughts and responses on social media. People on social media didn’t hold back when Babar Azam lost again in a very important Asia Cup match that was almost like a semi-final. One famous person who joined in was the Indian movie critic Kamaal R. Khan, who took to Twitter to say what he thought.
Kamaal R. Khan didn’t hold back. He is known for being honest and sometimes making controversial comments. He said that Babar Azam was a “Lukkha” batter, which basically means “worthless” in this situation. His tweet said, “Ye Babar Azam Kahan Ka No.1 player Hai. Har Match main Lukkhe Ki Tarah out Hokar Chala Jata Hai. Nepal Ke against 100 Banakar koi No.1 player Hota Hai Kya? #PAKvsSL”
