Babar Azam was in action for Pakistan on Thursday, November 27, in Rawalpindi against Sri Lanka. In the sixth match of the ongoing T20I tri-series in Pakistan, Babar came out to bat at No. 3 for the Salman Ali Agha-led side in the 185-run chase but failed to even open his account. He was sent back to the pavilion by Dushmantha Chameera on the last ball of the fourth over of Pakistan\u2019s innings. Chameera trapped Babar in front of the wickets, and he got out for a two-ball duck.<\/p>\n

Pakistani team management and their fans had high hopes from Babar, who is the highest run-getter in T20Is, but he failed to make any contribution.<\/p>\n

The duck by Babar on Thursday was the 10th time in T20Is he got out without scoring even one run.<\/p>\n

The 10th duck by Babar helped him now equal the unwanted record of most ducks for the Men in Green in the 20-over format of the game. Apart from Babar, out-of-favour wicketkeeper-batter Umar Akmal and young opener Saim Ayub also have 10 ducks each to their name in T20Is.<\/p>\n

A total of six players have scored 13 ducks in T20Is, whereas former India captain Rohit Sharma finished his T20I career with 12 ducks in 159 matches played from 2007 to 2024.<\/p>\n

Pakistan vs Sri Lanka in final<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pakistan will face Sri Lanka in the final of the T20I tri-series on Saturday, November 29, at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. The Sri Lankans booked their place in the summit clash by a six-run win over the hosts on Thursday. In the must-win match, opener Kamil Mishara scored 76 runs from 48 balls for Sri Lanka, and wicketkeeper Kusal Mendis added 40 runs to Sri Lanka\u2019s total from 23 balls.<\/p>\n

In reply, despite Captain Agha\u2019s unbeaten 63-run knock, Pakistan could only manage to score 178 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in their quota of 20 overs. Chameera picked up 4 wickets for the visitors in four overs and only conceded 20 runs.<\/p>\n
