AB de Villiers gave a fitting reply to a fan trolling Babar Azam for not being able to speak English fluently. The former South Africa skipper recently had a conversation with the Pakistan skipper and asked him about his career, the upcoming T20 World Cup, and his journey as a cricket so far.

As Babar Azam shared his experience with AB de Villiers, one user decided to have some fun at the expense of the Pakistan batting superstar. Every now and then, the Pakistan cricketers face trolling on social media for their inability to speak English fluently and the user decided to make fun of Babar Azam's English as well.

"ABD hardly control his laughing. Babar Azam speaking in English," wrote the user.

AB de Villiers noticed the comment and he made sure to respond to it. The South Africa captain came up with a brilliant response to defend Babar Azam as he wrote: "His English is infinitely better than my Urdu. And his batting is excellent, which is what matters more, I believe."

Babar Azam on the T20 World Cup:

Babar Azam will be seen in action soon in the forthcoming T20 World Cup, scheduled to get underway on Sunday (June 2) with the game between co-hosts USA and Canada in Dallas. Ahead of the competition, the Pakistan captain stated that he is in a happy frame of mind and is not thinking about the future. He also said that he and his teammates are confident of doing well in the marquee event.

Pakistan did well in the last two editions of the T20 World Cup and will be eyeing to do even better this year. In 2021, they crashed out at the semifinal stage before finishing runners-up in 2022. Pakistan are eyeing their second T20 World Cup title and first since 2009.
