Babar Azam’s father has finally spoken about Aftab Iqbal’s feud with the cricketer.
Earlier this week during the tri-series in New Zealand, prominent TV show host Aftab Iqbal criticized Babar Azam’s egoism and claimed that he was no longer a star in his eyes for which he later apologized as well.
Days later, Babar Azam responded to Aftab’s criticism in an unusual manner, saying “By the way, I don’t know who you are talking about. I don’t even know him. Such things happen whether we lose or win.”

Now Azam Siddique, the father of Pakistan captain Babar Azam, defended Aftab Iqbal, who came under fire for criticizing Babar Azam, requesting the public to respect the TV host’s opinion.
On his official Instagram page, Siddique wrote “Aftab Iqbal may have said something about Babar which he has also explained and there may have been some misunderstanding. I consider him the best teacher of Urdu.”

“He appears to be doing a lot for Urdu in his programs, and I am asking the public and Babar’s fans to respect and honor his opinion. Babar really doesn’t know him, but I have known him for a long time,” he added.
