Star Pakistan batter Babar Azam was seemingly angry with something during a Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) 2024 match on Saturday (January 27). In a match between the Rangpur Riders and Durdanto Dhaka, the ex-Men in Green captain was seen involved in a rather heated exchange with the opposition wicketkeeper. The video instantly grabbed eyeballs and went viral in no time especially as Babar, who is plying his trade for the Riders in BPL 2024, usually is a calm and composed cricketer.

However, in match number 12 of the 2024 edition of the T20 league, Babar did seem to loose his cool over something in the contest which was played at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium. Riders were batting first in the fixture during which Babar top-scored and eventually ended as the Player Of The Match for his 62 off 46 that aided his team to 183/8. However, during his innings, he was involved in a heated exchange with the Dhaka side wicketkeeper Irfan Sukkur.

In the viral clip which has surfaced on social media, Dhaka player Mohammad Naim Sheikh can be seen trying to calm down Irfan while Babar says to the keeper: "I am not talking to you.”

Take a look at the viral video here:

Rangpur Riders Beat Durdanto Dhaka By 79 Runs


While Riders set Dhaka a target of 184 runs to win, Dhaka's pursuit of that total was jolted by Mahedi Hasan's 3/11. In addition, Azmatullah Omarzai and Hasan Mahmud were equally impressive, finishing with figures of 2/14 and 2/18 respectively. For Dhaka, Alex Ross did score a half-century, making 51 off 35 but that was not enough to help his side register a win with fewer notable contributions from his other teammates. Saim Ayub's 17 off 14 was the next highest score for a batter which tells a story in itself.
