Former Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq said that a world no.1 cricketer should finish off the match for the team if he bats throughout 20 overs otherwise he should get out without playing complete overs.

“If you are the world’s number one cricket player and stands on wicket throughout 20 overs then you should be finishing the match otherwise get out without playing complete overs, said Inzamam in a program at a local news channel.

He added that Babar needs to learn the art of finishing matches as it is the first sign of being a great player.
