Pakistan will kickstart their T20 World Cup 2024 campaign against co-hosts USA on June 6
Pakistan cricket captain Babar Azam was heavily criticized following a leaked video from a training session ahead of their crucial T20 World Cup opener against the USA. The clip, which has gone viral on social media, shows Azam apparently body shaming teammate Azam Khan.
What did Babar Azam say to Azam Khan?
The video reportedly captures a lighthearted football session amongst the Pakistani players. However Azam allegedly called Khan “Genda,” a term used to describe a rhinoceros, and often used in a derogatory way to mock someone’s weight. While Azam Khan didn’t appear to react strongly, some teammates were seen laughing it off.
This is disgusting, below the belt and outright shambolic. Babar Azam saying that "ay gainda nai siddha hoya" to Azam Khan in practice is an exhibit of everything which is wrong with our society and our team both. As captain you can't be using such words.pic.twitter.com/h5G0sJHJ37

Azam Khan’s selection for the T20 World Cup squad has already been a subject of debate, with some questioning his recent form and fitness levels. This alleged act by Babar has raised eyebrows.
