He has international players singing his praises and his fans are fizzing with glee. Pakistani Twitter has termed him the GOAT — the Greatest Of All Time.

The second Test against Australia ended in a draw.

ESPN called the captain "Ice cool Babar", adding him on top of the list of Pakistani batters who scored highest in the fourth innings of a Test match.

A great captain carries his team forward towards victory and remembers to acknowledge them.

Azam is truly "making history over and over again."

Netizens have showered him in praises.

From this,

To this.

Azam really changed the game.

This was truly well deserved.

The captain is reigniting people's interest in cricket.

Fans were so happy, they had a new version of the national anthem for him.

It really was a good morning for Azam's fans.

There were some who were disappointed about that he wasn't able to make it to a double century.

If Babar Azam has played his second innings a little more aggressively then result would have been different. Australian bowlers were simply clueless where to bowl,that time Pakistani batsmen would have taken advantage.

Don’t know about GOAT as yet but he has definitely taken the first step towards it. This is the first time when he has had to perform with back to wall and against a quality non minnow team. He has to do this more often, in seaming, swinging conditions against top 4 teams only then he can be included amongst Smith, Root, Williamson and Kohli!
