Amir commented that Babar faced pressure throughout his innings, but when the moment called for an aggressive approach, he couldn't deliver.
"Babar played all his innings under pressure and when the time came for a charge he couldn't," Amir said.
Amir expressed that a batsman of his caliber should have guided the innings, absolving the middle-order batsmen since Babar and Rizwan had laid the foundation.
The stature of a batter like him must have taken the innings along and we can't blame the middle-order batters because they (Babar and Rizwan) had set the stage.
He highlighted his admiration for Virat Kohli, emphasizing his ability to single-handedly influence and conclude games, underlining it as a hallmark of a great player.
"Why do I highly rate Virat Kohli because he takes the game on his own and finishes. It's a sign of a big player. The game went away when we lost Babar and Rizwan," Amir added.
Amir lamented that the match slipped away once Babar and Rizwan were dismissed.
