Babar Azam loses cool at Irfan Sukkur in BPL 2024

In an intense showdown between Rangpur Riders and Durdanto Dhaka at the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) 2024, the focal point shifted from the dynamic batting prowess of former Pakistan captain Babar Azam to a fiery on-field confrontation that left both spectators and players in disbelief.

Azam and Brandon King opened the innings for the Riders. However, Azam’s initial struggle to find his rhythm and capitalize on the powerplay led to visible frustration, laying the groundwork for an unexpected turn of events later in the match.

The heated confrontation between Babar Azam and Irfan Sukkur

Amidst Azam’s growing discontent, a heated exchange unfolded when Durdanto’s wicket-keeper Sukkur accused Azam of employing a foul language against him. Despite attempts from his partner Mohammad Nabi, umpires and Durdanto’s captain to quell the situation, Azam vehemently denied any intentional aggression towards Sukkur. The on-field drama escalated as Azam unleashed a barrage of verbal exchanges directed at the Durdanto wicket-keeper.
