Babar Azam Siblings: Meet Safeer, Faisal and Fariya Azam

Babar Azam, the renowned Pakistani cricketer, was born on 15 October 1994 in the Walled City of Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan. He is the eldest of three siblings: Safeer Azam, Faisal Azam, and Fariya Azam. His family is of Punjabi Muslim descent and remains close-knit despite Babar's international success. Safeer, Babar's younger brother, shares a strong physical resemblance to him and has been seen supporting publicly.

Faisal has ventured into business and media, while Fariya has focused on her studies. Babar's cricketing journey started with his ODI debut against Zimbabwe in 2015 and T20I debut against England in 2016. He has had notable breakthroughs, including three consecutive ODI centuries against the West Indies in 2016. Babar has been a mainstay in Pakistan's international cricket, having scored thousands of runs in all formats, including multiple centuries.

He was named ICC Men’s ODI Cricketer of the Year in 2021 and 2022 and received the Sir Garfield Sobers Trophy in 2022. Babar was also conferred the Sitara-e-Imtiaz, Pakistan’s third-highest civilian honour, in 2023 for his services to cricket.
