In a startling revelation, former Pakistani cricketer Basit Ali has accused the International Cricket Council (ICC) of conspiring against Pakistan’s star batsman and captain, Babar Azam.
According to Basit Ali, the ICC has been deliberately undermining Babar’s performance in the official rankings despite his exceptional form in recent matches.
Basit Ali criticized the latest ICC rankings, noting that Babar Azam, who delivered an outstanding century during the World Cup, has been unfairly positioned.
He pointed out that other prominent players such as Rachin Ravindra, Quinton de Kock, Travis Head, and Virat Kohli, who also performed exceptionally well during the tournament, are ranked lower than expected.
Ali suggested that the ICC might be keeping Babar in the top position not to honor his achievements but rather to discourage him from further improving his game.
He described the ICC as being biased against the Pakistani captain, claiming that their actions are part of a broader agenda to prevent Babar from reaching his full potential.
The accusations have sparked controversy within the cricketing community, with fans and experts alike questioning the integrity of the ICC’s ranking system. As the debate continues, Babar Azam remains focused on his game, striving to maintain his form despite the challenges posed by these allegations.
