Pakistani skipper Babar Azam has impressed fans and critics alike in the ODI format but he still has miles to cover if he plans to match the records of legends Javed Miandad and Zaheer Abbas.
Azam became the first Pakistani after Mohammad Yousuf to be ranked as the best ODI batsman in the world, after he toppled India's Virat Kohli to reach the number 1 spot last month.
