Gilchrist Slams Babar Azam's BBL Fifty: "Still Has To Be Proactive"

  • Adam Gilchrist criticized Babar Azam's 46-ball 58 in BBL despite Sydney Sixers' win.
  • Gilchrist stated Babar lacked intent, putting pressure on partners, and needed to be more proactive.
  • Babar's traditional style, effective on difficult pitches, is now seen as counter-productive on flatter T20 wickets.
  • Salman Ali Agha previously supported Babar, noting his efforts to adapt and add new shots.
  • Babar's future success, especially in the 2026 T20 World Cup, may depend on pitch conditions.

Why It Matters: Gilchrist urges Babar Azam to be more proactive despite BBL fifty, highlighting T20 adaptation challenges.
