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."

To this.

Azam really changed the game.

This was truly well deserved.
