    There's A Weight Of Expectation; He's Lost His Power: Shastri, Ponting Offer Insight Amid Babar Inconsistent Form

    T20 World Cup: Former India coach Ravi Shastri and ex-Australian captain Ricky Ponting offered insight amid Pakistan batter Babar Azam’s inconsistent recent form, saying the right-hander has lost a bit of his power.

    Babar, who hit an unbeaten half-century against Australia in the final match of the three-game T20I series against Australia prior to the T20 World Cup, made a scratchy 15 off 18 in Pakistan's three-wicket win over the Netherlands in the tournament opener.

    Ponting harbours concerns that Babar no longer has the power he once possessed to maximise the middle overs of a batting innings, pondering whether he’s playing the right role for the team.
