Rashid Latif Considers Pakistan Cricketer Javed Miandad, Wasim Akram, and Inzamam-Ul-Haq “The Bradman and Lara of This Era”
Babar Azam, broadly respected as one of the most excellent hitters in present day cricket, gotten extraordinary awards from previous Pakistan captain Rashid Latif. Latif put Babar ahead of previous Pakistan greats like Javed Miandad, Wasim Akram, and Inzamam-ul-Haq in a YouTube video.
Azam, agreeing to the 53-year-old, is “the Bradman and Lara of our period.” “In 2019, I had tweeted. We were on our way to Britain for a visit. I had composed Miandad, Wasim, Waqar, Inzamam, Yousuf, Younus, and Saqlain’s names on a bit of paper. He is, be that as it may, ahead of them all. I’m alluding to a long time back. Since at that point, he’s clearly developed into a major player “, he clarified.
“We can’t make a comparison since I’m not only talking about Babar here. All of these batsmen, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and Kane Williamson, are batting with ten fielders in ODIs “..
Only one batter in Pakistan, according to Latif, is better than Azam, and he selected former opening batter Saeed Anwar.

“I’m going to speak about Saeed (Anwar). He’s the best batter I’ve ever seen. Without a doubt, the greatest batter Pakistan has ever produced. I’ve seen him up close, and believe me when I say he was a charismatic player. He would barely ever practice. So, to compare eras wouldn’t be fair”, he said.
“Inside the circle today, there are five fielders. There were four of them back then. If one fielder was outside the circle, Anwar or Inzamam would eat the bowlers. They were legends in their time. He (Babar) is the era’s Bradman and Lara. That’s the problem “, he went on to say.
