New Delhi. Pakistan's batsmen are seen playing excellent innings in the Multan Test. The second day of the Test match is going on and so far Abdullah Shafiq (102) and captain Shan Masood (151) have scored centuries here. Apart from them, Saud Shakeel (51*) is taking his innings forward after scoring a half-century. But Pakistan's star batsman Babar Azam has once again disappointed the team management and fans here.

Babar Azam flopped even on the pitch of Multan which is considered a paradise for batting. He was out LBW on the ball of Chris Woakes after scoring just 30 runs. Captain Shan Masood was able to score a century in Test cricket after 1524 days, but Azam, who had been facing a drought of runs for the last 14 innings, could not end it even in the 15th innings.

Babar looked focused here and was taking his innings forward with patience. After facing 70 balls, he had scored 30 runs with the help of 5 fours. But on the 71st ball of the innings, he missed and was out LBW. After this, fans have opened a front against him on social media. Many Pakistani fans are trolling him.

However, many fans of Babar Azam are still with him. One fan wrote, 'Who will believe that I used to be a river' and also shared a broken heart emoji with it.

Another fan wrote, ‘Why Babar.. why after all.. everything was going well.’

Meanwhile, a fan has also tried to boost the morale of the fans by sharing a statement by former England batsman David Gower. Gower said, 'Babar Azam is one of the best players. But what is happening is that sometimes luck goes against you and it will change.' This fan has expressed hope that Gower's statement will come true.
