Pakistan are all set to play England on Sunday at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in the final of the ongoing T20 World Cup. After back-to-back defeats in the first two games, the Men in Green turned things around in style to reach the summit clash. However, it won’t be an easy task for Babar Azam and Co. to get to glory as their opponents just had a brutal 10-wicket victory against India in their semi-final fixture.
While Babar and the Pakistan team management were doing their homework ahead of the all-important final, a journalist’s question that was asked to the Pakistan skipper during the pre-match press conference left him stunned. “Talk about the benefits of playing the IPL, is that something you feel would have helped you and your team, and is that something you have any hope for in the future?” the journalist asked.
For a while, Babar had no idea what to answer, and soon after, he turned to his right where the Pakistan media manager was standing. “We are taking questions on the World Cup final at the moment,” the manager responded quickly to protect Babar.
The video went viral on social media in no time as Pakistani players’ participation in the Indian Premier League (IPL) has always been a hot topic for Twitterati.
Not my Question!
In the pre match press conference, Babar Azam was asked about what it’s like to not play the IPL.

Respect talent
team has potential to beat team. We respect talent even though we had bad relationship with them. what is the use of hosting 12 years IPL,spending billions on player's & not able to win till date.
