#GaryKirsten Aims To Provide Support To #BabarAzam

Kirsten while expressing the desire to reduce pressure on Babar said, “I have been in touch with Babar. He has done remarkably well as a cricketer and sort of carries a lot of the weight of that team on his shoulders. What we would try to do is to lift that pressure of his shoulders. It is important to realize that he’s just one of a whole group of players and then he can just free himself up to play with his natural talent. We certainly saw that in the last game against Ireland and I think he played an outstanding innings and hopefully, we will see that kind of Babar Azam a lot more rather than the one that feels that he has to be contribute all the time to a team.”

“That’s not fair on any player. But I think if we can unlock that, there’s a big group of guys that can make match-winning contributions, especially in T20 cricket. It will take a lot of pressure off him (Babar), and I think he’s happy to be back as a captain, so I am looking forward to working with him.”
