During the Exhibition Match Peshawar Zalmi vs Legends XI, a touching moment occurred when a supporter came onto the field just to hug Babar Azam. The moment occurred while Babar was out in the field, and the public roared with applause as the supporter made a beeline for their cricketing idol. Security personnel soon moved in, but not before the fan was able to exchange a quick hug with the Pakistan skipper. The gesture illustrated the great love and respect that fans have for Babar and made it one of the most discussed moments of the match besides the on-pitch cricketing action. Watch here: This is insane. Never seen this before for any cricket star in Pakistan. Unreal love of @babarazam258 😭❤️pic.twitter.com/wKu2i7jlSH — Hassan Abbasian (@HassanAbbasian) August 30, 2025 Also Read | Team India’s Dubai Arrival Date Confirmed Ahead of Asia Cup 2025 The Exhibition Match between Legends XI and Peshawar Zalmi proved to be an absolute entertainer for cricket lovers. The two teams played in a light-hearted but competitive mood, giving the audience a lot of thrills. The match had it all from massive sixes and astute bowling to amusing crowd moments and humiliating dismissals. Saeed Ajmal brought back everyone's memory of his spin magic by bowling out Babar Azam, and the Zalmi batsmen treated fans to some aggressive shots. There were also lighthearted moments on the ground, with a fan rushing in to greet Babar, which was one of the day's key highlights. Such matches demonstrate how cricket can be enjoyed outside international competitions, when greats and contemporary stars mingle to please the crowds. Babar Azam’s Dip in International Performances Babar Azam, one time Pakistan's most dependable batter in all the three formats, has seen his form tapering off over the last year. His inability to convert starts into substantial scores has become a cause for worry, and critics have faulted him for lacking consistency under pressure. The downturn was witnessed in recent overseas series, and it ultimately led to his exclusion from Pakistan's team in the Asia Cup 2025. The move surprised most fans, but it also indicated the stiff competition among team players. With younger batsmen rising to the occasion, Babar now has the task of once again finding his touch and establishing his position on the international scene.
