Former player Rameez Raja has said that Pakistan Test team captain Shan Masood needs to improve his batting. Not only this, he also said that Shan Masood will have to perform better as a captain.

Let us tell you, Pakistan played its first test match against Bangladesh in Rawalpindi. In this match, Pakistan had to face defeat by 10 wickets against Bangladesh. Talking about Shan Masood, he scored 6 runs in the first innings while in the second innings the captain of the Pakistan team was out after scoring 14 runs. Ever since Shan Masood got the captaincy of the Pakistan Test team, there has been a significant decline in his batting.

The former player shared a video on his YouTube channel in which he said, ‘Shan Masood needs to improve his batting and he should also have an understanding of the game. He is an experienced captain. Shan Masood has also captained in the Pakistan Super League and county matches. I do not understand at all with what thinking he played four fast bowlers on the track of Rawalpindi. He will also have to improve his batting. If Masood keeps getting out early like this, then his team will also have to face problems.’

Rameez Raja further said, ‘After this defeat, the Pakistan team may have to suffer a lot. They cannot lose the series because there will be a lot of pressure on them now. Losing the series means that the tension in the dressing room will also increase and many questions will be raised.

Pakistan is losing the series at home and that too against Bangladesh, which means that the host has not understood the situation well. Pakistan’s batsmen also did not perform well and the bowlers also bowled disappointingly.

The second and final Test match between Pakistan and Bangladesh is starting on August 30. Bangladesh is leading 1-0 in the two-match Test series.
