Babar Azam's HEARTWARMING Reaction to Kamran Ghulam's Maiden Test Century During Pak-NZ Goes VIRAL

Pakistan vs England: Former Pakistan captain Babar Azam came up with a lovable reaction to Kamran Ghulam's maiden Test century and that is creating a buzz on social space. Babar was dropped from the Test side following a string of low scores. Kamran Ghulam replaced Babar in the second Test at Multan. Walking into bat after captain Shan Masood was dismissed, Ghulam looked the part as he went onto bring up his maiden Test century. He eventually perished for a well-made 118. His composed and determined innings on the first day of the second Test saw him face 224 deliveries. Ghulam’s knock was laced with 11 boundaries and a six. In fact his knock impressed Babar as well, who took to Instagram and congratulated Ghulam. Along with the photo, Babar added a caption that read, “Well played Kamran!”

Ghulam became the 13th Pakistan batsman to score a century on test debut and is the first to do so against England.

Off-spinner Shoaib Bashir (1-66) broke through Ghulam's defenses late in the final session when he tickled the leg bail with the second new ball just four overs old.

At the time of filing the copy, Pakistan were bundled out for 366. For England, Jack Leach was the pick of the bowlers with four wickets. Currently, England have resumed batting in their first essay and the two openers are looking aggressive.
