Fatima Sana: A Bigger Star Than Babar Azam?
According to Mohammad Wasim
Mohammad Wasim, former cricketer and chief selector, has made a surprising statement. He believes that Fatima Sana, the women's cricket team captain, is currently a bigger star than the men's team captain, Babar Azam.
Wasim expresses his pride in Fatima's consistent performances but also sympathizes with her, as she often plays for losing teams. He recalls an instance on television where an anchor questioned if Fatima was Pakistan's most popular cricketer. Wasim agreed, attributing this popularity to her impressive skills.
He compared Fatima to male cricketers, specifically mentioning Babar Azam. According to him, Fatima's contributions with both batting and bowling make her a true superstar.
"Now, when we talk about boys and girls collectively... they always praise Fatima Sana... Therefore, I think the other cricket stars in the men’s team are not mentioned with the same praise as she is. Obviously, their performances are not as good...”
During the discussion, Dr Noman Niaz asked Wasim to compare Fatima's performance to that of Babar Azam. Without hesitation, Wasim stated that Fatima was ahead of Babar.
