Pakistan have not able to reach the knockouts of the ICC events recently. Their last knockout appearance came in T20 World Cup 2022 final against England, where they lost by five wickets in Melbourne. Former Pakistan captain, Babar Azam was leading the side then and he scored 32 runs off 58 balls with the help of two boundaries.
After almost two years down the line, the batter was invited by the Melbourne Cricket Ground to donated the bat he used in the World Cup 2022 final to display at the Melbourne Cricket Club’s Long Room. Babar, while presenting hit bat to the administration, quipped that it was a matter of honour for him to share his gear amongst revered belongings of some of the greats in the game.

“Honestly it is an honor for me and this means a lot to me because I played a World Cup final using this bat. I have a lot of good memories at the MCG … and playing a lot of cricket here, one day and Test matches, it is one of the best grounds in my life. It means a lot to me and there are (bats of) a lot of great players here, so this is an honor for me,” said Babar as quoted by The Indian Express.
It is worth noting that, after an emphatic Test series win against England at home, Pakistan have reached Australia for the three ODI’s and three T20I’s. The first ODI is scheduled to commence on November 4 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Babar said that the ODI series will be viewed as preparation for the upcoming Champions Trophy at home.
