Pakistan completed a 2-0 series sweep against South Africa on Monday — their first against the Proteas since 2003. Consequently, the Babar Azam-led team has climbed the ICC Test Rankings ladder and is currently at No 5, above South Africa.
Babar Azam, who got his Test captaincy stint off to the perfect start, expressed his joy after the match. Azam emphasized that there is still room for improvement and that the victory against South Africa will be a huge morale-booster moving forward.
We have to win away from home, too: Babar Azam
Babar Azam deemed it important that his new-look Test side performs similarly well on away tours as well. He feels that this series victory will help the team regain confidence from the fans following a disastrous New Zealand tour.
Following an emphatic Test series triumph, Babar Azam will now lead Pakistan in their three-match T20I series starting on February 11. All matches will be held at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium.
