Pakistani team is all set to face the arch-rivals India in their first super-12 match of the 20-20 World Cup 2022. Earlier, the men in green defeated the Indians by a margin of five wickets in the last clash during the super-4 round of the Asia Cup 2022. Notably, it will be the third time in 2022 that both teams will be facing each other in the T20I cricket.
Apart from the action on the field, skipper Babar Azam is also in the headlines of both social media and mainstream media of Pakistan. But recently, Imad Wasim has come up with a controversial statement on Babar during a Pakistani TV show. The video of this conversation has gone viral over social media within minutes of being shared by a Twitter user.
In this video, the anchor happened to ask the star all-rounder Imad Wasim, ‘Babar ki bass shakal masoom hai? (Is Babar innocent only with the face).” The cricketer came up with a ‘yes’ followed by a big laugh among the panel.
Here’s the video:

Coming back to Babar, he will be in action with the Pakistani team just a few minutes later during the much-anticipated clash against Pakistan. Notably, Babar is the first and only captain of Pakistan who has defeated India in a World Cup match as a captain of the team.
The men in green under the captaincy of Babar Azam, completely outmuscled the Indians when they met last time in the group match of the 20-20 World Cup 2021. The opening pair of skipper Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan helped Pakistan to register a massive win of 10 wickets against the arch-rivals.
Prior to the ongoing 20-20 World Cup 2022, Babar’s men played two matches against India during the Asia Cup 2022. After losing the group match, they made a strong comeback and defeated the men in blue by a margin of five wickets in the super-4 match.
