A video from the celebrations has gone viral on social media in which it can be seen that Babar Azam is standing in the last line during the cake cutting and celebrations.

Pakistan defeated Sri Lanka by three wickets in the final at Lahore on October 31 to lift the tri-series trophy. However, Babar had a match to forget as he was dismissed for a five-ball duck while chasing 326 runs.

Babar's performance throughout the tournament was also below expectations. He scored just 118 runs in five innings at an average of 23.60, without registering a single half-century. His scores in the tournament were 45, 34, 10, 29 and 0.

The video showing Babar during the team's celebrations has received mixed reactions from fans. One user wrote, "I can't see him like this mann..." while another commented, "He does not seem happy that the team won."

Some fans criticised his poor batting performance and questioned his place in the team. One user wrote, "Plz let youngsters shine is budhy ka pecha chordo," suggesting that Pakistan should give young players more opportunities.

One user wrote, "It's alright darling time comes and goes. When he was at his peak, many must have felt the same and been disappointed."
