Australian cricketer, Steve Smith, picked Pakistan's skipper, Babar Azam as someone who comes to his mind when he thinks of the cover drive shot.  

Smith mentioned it during an ICC segment, which also featured a few Pakistan players well, adding a touch of humor and camaraderie to the sport.

During the segment, the players were presented with a simple yet significant question, "What comes to your mind when you hear cover drive?" 

Among those questioned were Shadab Khan, Haris Rauf, Steve Smith, Imam-ul-Haq, and Hasan Ali. 

Interestingly, when posed with this question, they all instantly named "Babar Azam", acknowledging his prowess in executing the cover drive, a shot that has become synonymous with the Pakistani skipper.

Towards the end of the segment, the spotlight turned to the 28-year-old batting maestro, Babar Azam himself. 

When asked the same question, "What comes in your mind when you hear cover drive?" Babar humbly replied, "MYSELF."
