Babar Azam has retained his place in Pakistan's T20 squad to face Australia in a three-match series in Lahore, doubtless with a point to prove after his recent eventful but under-achieving spell in the BBL.
Azam endured a largely under-par season after his much trumpeted signing for the Sydney Sixers, making only 202 runs in 11 matches at a strike rate of just 103.06, the lowest from any players to have made 200-plus runs in a Big Bash season.
