Babar Azam had a torrid time in the T20 World Cup 2024, where Pakistan suffered a humiliating group-stage exit, failing to qualify for the Super Eights.
The Lahore-born cricketer was heavily criticised for his below-par returns as a batter as well as captain in the marquee event.
However, ahead of the Bangladesh Tests, Babar Azam has shown a remarkable determination to bounce back from the T20 World Cup 2024.
He is focused on bringing his A-game for the national side, hitting the gym like a pro and nailing several tough workouts.

After a disastrous T20 World Cup 2024 campaign, Pakistan will host Bangladesh in a two-match Test series between August 21 and September 3.
The first Test is scheduled in Rawalpindi while Karachi's iconic National Stadium will stage the decider of the high-octane series.
Barring the Test series against the Tigers, Pakistan will also host England, West Indies, New Zealand and South Africa across formats in a packed home season.
