The incumbent skipper of the Pakistan cricket team Babar Azam equaled an unwanted record of former captain Imran Khan in ODIs.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Pakistan Skipper\u00a0Babar Azam<\/a>\u00a0had a poor return to the ODI circuit on Tuesday, August 22 as he got dismissed for a duck and it saw him equal an undesired record of the 1992 World Cup-winning captain Imran Khan. Playing against Afghanistan in the first ODI of the three-match series at the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Stadium in Hambantota, Babar won the toss and decided to bat first to make full use of the batting conditions on offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, contrary to what the skipper expected, Afghanistan got a few early breakthroughs and were breathing down their neck. Opening batter Fakhar Zaman<\/a> got out at an individual score of two and was soon joined in the changing room by the Pakistan captain who got dismissed for a three-ball duck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
