[Watch] Babar Azam And Sarfaraz Ahmed Enjoy Qawwali Night On Imam-Ul-Haq’s Wedding

The Pakistan Cricket Team faced a challenging journey in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 hosted in India. Winning just 4 out of the 9 games, the team found itself knocked out of the group stages, marking a significant setback. The tournament was not just about the on-field struggles; off-field changes and events added to the pressure.

The team encountered a pivotal moment as Babar Azam stepped down from the captaincy across all formats. This decision, coming at a critical juncture, led to the appointment of Sha Masood as the Test captain and Shaheen Shah Afridi as the T20I captain.

Despite the World Cup disappointment, the focus now shifts to the upcoming challenge against Australia in a 4-match Test series set to commence on December 14. The spotlight intensifies as Pakistan prepares to face the formidable Australian side Down Under, a series that will undoubtedly test their resilience and adaptability.

Amidst the cricketing saga, the personal life of Imam-Ul-Haq, the opening batter for Pakistan, took centre stage. Prior to the series against Australia, Imam-Ul-Haq celebrated a significant milestone: his marriage. The ceremony gathered attention not only for the joyous occasion but also for the presence of cricket luminaries.

Former Pakistan captains, Sarfaraz Ahmed and Babar AzamΒ added a touch of cricketing glamour to the festivities. The duo attended the Qawwali night ahead of Imam-ul-Haq’s wedding in Lahore on Thursday, November 23. A video circulating on various platforms captured the camaraderie between Sarfaraz and Babar as they enjoyed the soulful tunes of Qawwali.

The video showcased Sarfaraz Ahmed immersed in the music, displaying a side seldom seen on the cricket field. Babar Azam couldn’t help but smile as the Qawwals resonated with the enchanting ‘Mera piya ghar aaya.’ The cultural celebration, intertwined with cricketing bonds, provided a refreshing glimpse into the personal lives of these cricketing icons.

As the cricketing calendar unfolds, Pakistan braces itself for the upcoming challenge against Australia. The test series, slated to begin on December 14, holds immense significance for both teams. For Pakistan, it’s an opportunity to bounce back from the World Cup setback and prove their mettle in the longer format.

In this high-stakes series, all eyes will be on key players who can potentially turn the tide in Pakistan’s favour. The Test captain, Sha Masood, will be under scrutiny for his leadership skills, while the seasoned campaigner, Babar Azam, will aim to contribute significantly with the bat.
