Former Pakistan captain Babar Azam is facing a lot of criticism for his poor performance in the Champions Trophy 2025. Babar Azam could not perform according to the people in this tournament. Pakistan's experienced batsman Babar scored 87 runs in three matches at an average of 43.50. Babar Azam also played a slow innings in the match against New Zealand, for which he also got a lot of infamy. Meanwhile, Babar's father, Azam Siddiqui, has defended his son's performance and given a befitting reply to the critics.

During the match against New Zealand, Babar Azam scored fifty in 81 balls while chasing a target of 321 runs. He also looked in good form in the match against India and hit five fours during his inning of 23 runs. Former fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar lashed out at Babar Azam. He called Babar a fraud. Babar's father said that his son will make a strong comeback for Peshawar Zalmi in the Pakistan Super League.

Babar Azam's father, Azam Siddiqui, wrote on Instagram, "The boss is always right. Despite receiving the cap of the ICC T20 Team of the Year, he was dropped from the team. He will do well in the national T20 and PSL, InshaAllah, and will be back in the team soon. But I request the former players to choose their words carefully. If someone responds, he will not be able to handle it. You are the past, and your doors will never open again." He further said, "Some people say that father talks too much, but I am his first and last coach, spokesperson, mentor, and the biggest well-wisher and father in the world. So those who are not qualified or capable should have patience." Babar said, "I request cricket lovers to stop making noise. Before listening to him, check his performance during his tenure on the PCB website. This is enough for sensible people. Pakistan Zindabad!"
