Babar Azam Signs as Guest Player for OGDCL, Aims to End Slump

The former Karachi star, who last played first‑class cricket in December 2019, will be rostered as a guest player for OGDCL. His previous Test century of 161 runs came against New Zealand in Karachi in December 2022. By re‑entering the red‑ball arena, Babar seeks to emulate that innings and silence detractors who point to his prolonged absence from the domestic scene.
