Pakistan top order batsman, Babar Azam has become one of the mainstay of the team’s batting line in a short span of time at the limited overs.

Azam ability to accumulate runs and scoring big, has been applauded by mates and critics alike. The youngster spilled out some of the lessons he got during his Under 19 days, which have later helped him in the international cricket.

“Ijaz bhai used to tell me: you stay at the wicket, everything else will happen. I rose to the international level keeping these words in mind; I retained that mindset,” stated Azam, quoted ESPNcricinfo.

Babar, alongside current skipper Sarfraz Ahmed is one of the very few Pakistani players who have emerge from the domestic circuit, rising through the ranks representing the U-19 and A side.

The batsman advice the youngsters to stay fit and give their all to the game, before asking any return.

“I would say never compromise on your cricket,” said Babar. “The more time you give to the ground, the more it will give back to you. Keep an eye on your fitness and give your 100% in matches. Stay focused.”
