BABAR AZAM’S LPL 2023 AVAILABILITY:
Even though, the captain of the Pakistan team doesn’t plays much of T20 leagues because of his national duties and availability issues, but he has been signed directly by the Colombo owner, Sagar Khanna for the LPL 2023 season, which means they should’ve taken these things into account.
If we talk about the availability of Babar Azam, at the moment there are no doubts on his availability for the LPL 2023 season because no series of Pakistan is scheduled in AUGUST 2023.
Pakistan was scheduled to play an ODI series against Afghanistan and if that happens, Colombo Strikers might face a huge dent because almost all of their overseas players are white-ball players of the Pakistan’s current team.
