What did this Indian Journalist ask from Babar Azam?

Following Pakistan's training session on Saturday in Colombo, Sri Lanka, Indian journalist Vikrant Gupta asked Pakistan skipper Babar Azam for the his signed bat.

Taking to Twitter, the journalist shared a video of the two talking after the nets. 

Later, in another video, Gupta said: "Babar Azam seemed very fluent in the nets and the sound of the ball hitting his bat was different from the others. So after the nets, I stopped Babar Azam and asked him for his signed bat. I told him that I specifically wanted the bat he plays with. Now let’s see if he gives me his bat." 

“I have never asked any Indian player for his bat,” he added when questioned if he had requested Virat Kohli for his bat in the past.

Azam is one of the best batters in the world and leads the Pakistan team in all formats of the game.
