Babar Azam’s batting expertise has taken Pakistan to a higher standard among other cricketing nations in recent times. He has not only gifted the side with a lot of match-winning knocks but his leadership skills have also heralded a new era in Pakistan cricket. The Pakistan skipper’s cover drive and accurate timing is something that has won the hearts of cricket enthusiasts around the globe. Now, this has become a topic in science textbooks for ninth-standard kids in Pakistan. They have been studying it to understand physics. A page of the book containing a physics question related to Azam’s cover drive has been doing rounds on social media.
A Pakistan journalist has shared a photograph of the page on his personal Twitter handle. The page includes a question regarding the concept of classical mechanics. The question reads, “Babar Azam has hit a cover drive by giving kinetic energy of 150j to the ball by his bat. At what speed will the ball go to the boundary if the mass of the ball is 120 g?”
However, Pakistan’s education board has opted to use a relatively light ball as an instance. According to MCC, cricket balls used in Men’s cricket should weigh between 155.9 and 163 grams, and for women’s cricket, should weigh between 140 and 151 grams, while the question mentioned 120 grams.
The caption of the Twitter post says, “Babar Azam’s cover drive-related question in 9th-grade physics syllabus.” Since being shared, the post has garnered nearly 2,500 likes so far. Users appreciated Pakistan’s Federal Board of Education for including such a topic. As cricket has a special place in the hearts of the country, it can make learning easy and interesting for the children.
A user acknowledged that the syllabus is good.
Accha syllabus hai Pakistan Education board ka…

If Babar would read this question I believe he may not hit on cover drive.
