Speaking after Pakistan’s victory against South Africa in the tri-nation series, Babar said his primary focus while batting is to score well, but he has been unable to finish games.
"Unfortunately, I am not able to finish the innings, but Rizwan and Salman played well today. Performances like these boost team confidence," he said.
Babar reiterated that he does not see himself as a "king" and requested people to refrain from calling him that.
"I am not a king yet. We will see when I leave. Opening is a new role for me, and I have taken on this responsibility as per the team’s requirements," he told reporters.
Once the innings builds, I get a better idea of the game and pitch. I always try to perform well, but I haven't been able to play long innings after settling in," he said.
Reflecting on his mindset, Babar revealed that he often talks to himself about overcoming challenges.
"What I have done before is in the past. If I dwell on past performances, I won’t be able to perform in the future. Every new day comes with a new plan and mindset. When we successfully chase big totals, it boosts our confidence," he added.
