40 runs off 84 balls looks slow on paper, right? But this might be one of the finest innings of Babar Azam's career.
Just imagine if he had gotten out after Sahibzada Farhan's wicket. Who would have survived on that pitch? The amount of turns was unbelievable. Honestly, I can't remember seeing a pitch where the ball was turning that much throughout the innings.
Sometimes an innings isn't defined by the strike rate, but by the conditions and the situation. This was one of those innings.
