Babar Azam's running between the wickets and communication with fellow batters is somewhat suspect and it can be assessed from the fact that he has been run out the most times among Pakistan batters in Test cricket since making his international debut. The latest instance came on day 2 of the second Test against New Zealand in Karachi on Tuesday as Babar and Imam-ul-Haq were left stranded on the same side of the wicket after a terrible mix up.
The batters were attempting a third run and a look at the video makes it clear that it was Imam who called for the third run and then stopped running even as Babar continued his sprint towards the striker's end without even looking at his partner.
The hosts ended the second day on 154/3, trailing New Zealand by 295 runs, as a century last wicket stand took the visitors to 449 earlier in the day. Imam remained unbeaten on 74
The video of the run out has since gone viral on social media and fans have started trolling the Pakistan players. Here are some of the posts.
