Hasan Ali, a bowler for Pakistan, issued an apology for his widely shared remarks about Babar Azam during the Pakistan Super League (PSL). Even though the 30-year-old has seen a decline in form over the past two seasons, he continues to support the Pakistani star batsman.
Babar Azam and Hasan Ali have long been linked, particularly after his social media-famous “King Karlega (The King will accomplish)” declaration came to light. Even though the batter was defended in this statement, many fans hold him responsible for Babar’s abrupt decline in performance over the past two years. Indeed, if people believe that Hasan Ali made a grave error by making the statement, he would like to apologise and still support the elite batter.
“If anyone believes that calling Babar “King Kar Lega” was an error, I apologise to all of my fans. He is the greatest, was the greatest, and will soon recover. After the Lahore Qalandars vs. Karachi Kings game, Ali stated at the press conference that everyone experiences difficult times.

Recent PSL performances by Hasan Ali and Babar Azam
Speaking of both senior players’ recent performances, Hasan Ali has been a member of the Karachi Kings. Despite having a poor debut, he had a fantastic return in the team’s most recent match against Lahore Qalandars, which they ultimately lost. Hasan scored 27 runs off of 25 balls and finished with statistics of 4/28.
However, Babar Azam has had a quiet start to the competition, leading the Peshawar Zalmi with a duck in the opening match against the Quetta Gladiators and scoring just one run in the final match against the reigning champions, Islamabad United.
