Big Bash League: Former Pakistan spinner Danish Kaneria whilereacting to Babar Azam’s early exit from the Big Bash League and an on-field incident with Steve Smith, where the former Pakistan captain was denied a strike, stated that when a player thinks of the team, he must sometimes be prepared to “swallow bitter pills."

Babar was struggling for runs in the ongoing BBL season. He scored just 202 runs in 11 games. He left BBL midway and returned to Pakistan to join his national team to commence preparations for upcoming international matches.

Reacting to reports suggesting that Babar felt 'disrespected' during the Sydney Sixers match, Kaneria said such situations are part and parcel of professional cricket and should not be viewed emotionally.
