Writer’s Take
It is very exciting to see Pakistan’s best cricketers playing in the Big Bash League this season. When Babar Azam plays a graceful ball with a stroke and Shaheen Afridi strikes wickets down, these men bring with them the skill and energy that will never be matched.Â
It makes the competition immediately higher and each game more exciting to watch. I can already visualize how heated the field will be when these stars go against each other, and it will definitely provide some memorable moments to those who are interested in the game.
The most thrilling aspect to me is that these players have the power to shape the result of games. They can easily contribute to pressure situations because they have been involved in international cricket before, and this is very important in T20 cricket.
