Babar Azam Joins Most Ducks List as Zalmi Suffer Heavy Defeat Against Gladiators

Babar Azam Equals Unwanted PSL Record as Zalmi Struggle Against Gladiators

Peshawar Zalmi captain Babar Azam made headlines for the wrong reasons during the team’s clash with Quetta Gladiators at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in PSL 10, registering another duck and joining the list of batters with the most ducks in PSL history.

🦆 Babar’s Growing Duck Tally

• Dismissed for 0 by Mohammad Amir

• Ties former teammate Kamran Akmal for most ducks in Zalmi history

• Surpasses Lahore Qalandars captain Shaheen Afridi

• Behind only:

  1. Imad Wasim – 12 ducks

  2. Wahab Riaz – 10 ducks

This marks another dip in form for the prolific right-hander, whose performances will be closely scrutinized as Zalmi aim to recover from a shaky start in the tournament.

🔥 Gladiators Dominate; Ali Hammered

Adding to Zalmi’s woes was a nightmarish bowling spell by Mohammad Ali, once the second-highest wicket-taker in PSL 9.

• Figures: 4 overs – 0 wickets – 57 runs conceded

• Second-worst bowling spell in Zalmi history

• Only surpassed by Azmatullah Omarzai (62/2 vs. Multan in PSL 8)

Ali, making his first appearance this season, struggled to find rhythm as Gladiators’ aggressive batting lineup punished every loose delivery.
