Pakistan reached the T20 World Cup final in 2022 for the first time since its maiden victory in 2009. The Men in Green are poised to make history against England on Sunday at the MCG, despite the fact that their journey to the final hasn’t been flawless. Prior to the crucial match, the Asian team feels optimistic about their prospects, but the Pakistani captain appeared frazzled when the IPL was brought up at a news conference.
After suffering heartbreaking losses in their first two games, the Men in Green were on the edge of exiting the tournament early. But they are now just one victory away from success thanks to a little bit of luck and some excellent play. After India’s humiliating loss to England, PCB president Ramiz Raza made fun of the IPL, while Babar Azam stayed silent. The IPL is the richest domestic league in India.
The Pakistani captain sought the help of the media manager for Pakistan, who was standing next to him, to get rid of the problematic question. The writer had questioned Babar on any potential advantages for Pakistani players participating in the IPL.
“Talk about the benefits of playing the IPL, is that something you feel would help you and your team, and is that something you have any hope for in the future?,” asked the journalist.
Babar immediately turned to his team’s media manager, who stated, “We are taking questions on the World Cup final at the moment.”
