Former Pakistan captain Babar Azam is in the news for the wrong reasons these days. Amid the ongoing white-ball series against Bangladesh, a video of him is creating a stir on social media.
In this viral video, he is seen getting into a fight with fans on the road. This incident is so shocking that everyone is just talking about it.
Why did Babar fight with fans on the road?
In the viral video, Babar is seen having a heated argument with some fans. The matter escalated so much that Babar angrily pushed a young fan and also tried to raise his hand.
It seems that the fans taunted him about his discharge from the T20 team or not getting a place in the white-ball format, which enraged him. Babar’s anger was clearly visible while coming out of the crowd.

This video is now spreading like wildfire. Some people are mocking Babar by calling him “Street Babar”, while some are condemning his attitude.
Babar is currently out of the T20 International team and is playing only ODI and Test cricket. The changes after the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 also took away his captaincy.
In such a situation, this street ruckus can create more problems for him.

Why is the fight between Babar’s father and Akmal in the headlines
On the other hand, Babar’s father Azam Siddiqui is also embroiled in controversies. Former cricketer Kamran Akmal said in a podcast that Babar should now play only Test cricket, as he is not right for the white-ball format.
This thing hurt Siddiqui. He shared an old picture of Akmal on social media and called him a “jealous” and “failed” player.
Siddique wrote, “Talking behind the back of successful people is the compulsion of unsuccessful people.”
Akmal also gave a befitting reply. He asked Siddiqui to stay within his limits and said that he has always played with pride and respect. Akmal also said that performance matters in cricket, not personal enmity.
However, this drama of Babar on the road and his father’s fight with Akmal, both can bring new problems for his career.
Also fans and cricket experts are now watching how Babar comes out of this ruckus.
