Babar Azam, a flamboyant batter and the all-format captain of the Pakistani team, has revealed that he uses Twitter and Instagram the most.

The Pakistani skipper, who is ranked among the world's top batters, boasts massive social media following — 4.6 million on Twitter, 3.9 million Facebook, and 3.4 million Instagram.

Recently, when the blue ticks of legacy verified accounts were removed, Babar's verified was also revoked on Twitter, but it was later restored.

In a video released by the Pakistan Cricket Board, host Urooj Mumtaz conducted a rapid-fire round with the skipper, in which she asked several questions.
