Captain of Pakistan Cricket Team Babar Azam Celebrates Birthday in Bengaluru
After the arrival of the Pakistan cricket team from Ahmedabad on Sunday, the players chose to confine themselves to their hotel rooms, but the relatively low-key touchdown did not prevent them from celebrating the birthday of captain Babar Azam. The players cut a cake at the team hotel as Babar turned 29 on Sunday.
As per the statement of an official traveling with the team, “It was a small function attended by the players and support staff. There were not many activities today as it was a travel day, and the team will soon start preparations for the upcoming matches.”
The Pakistan cricket team is going to face Australia on October 20 at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, and they will be eager to give a better account of themselves after the seven-wicket defeat at the hands of India on Saturday.
This is also the first visit of Pakistan to Bengaluru since 2012. They had then beaten India by five wickets in the first T20I match of the two-match series.
