Babar Azam, who has amassed over 4,000 runs in T20 Internationals, is widely regarded as one of the top T20 batsmen. But his hitting strike rate, which stands at 129.9 right now, has often been a source of controversy.

Before the World Cup, the former captain of Pakistan, Babar Azam, has been urged to show greater resolve by the former captain.

Babar is an important player for Pakistan in the World Cup. He was reappointed as the captain of Pakistan's T20 team following Shaheen Afridi's replacement. 

Misbah demands that Babar Azam strike between 160 and 170 times.

In the most recent Twenty20 tournament, Pakistan made it to the finals and Babar Azam opened. But with Babar batting at number three, Saim Ayub and Mohammad Rizwan are opening for Pakistan right now.

Pakistan cannot afford for Babar to slow down at this point since he needs to both anchor and keep the scoreboard moving.

Babar has recently come under fire for his lethargic batting approach. In reaction to this criticism, Misbah made remarks that called on Babar to take a more assertive stance.

In the recent Ireland series, which Pakistan won 2-1, Babar Azam played with a lot of aggression. Fans and analysts anticipate that Babar will continue to play thus aggressively in larger games.

In the T20 World Cup match between Pakistan and India on June 9, Babar's performance would be critical.
