In the first Test match played between these two teams, England defeated Pakistan by an innings and 47 runs. Pakistan players failed to show tremendous performance in the first test. Now the second test between these two teams is starting from October 15 at the same venue. Let us tell you that in the first test match played between Pakistan and England, the pitch of Multan was heavily criticized. Recently, Pakistan’s assistant coach Azhar Mahmood revealed that he wanted to use the pitch well for the series against Bangladesh and England. According to ESPNcricinfo, Azhar Mahmood said, ‘We had a clear plan as to what kind of pitch we have to prepare for Bangladesh and also what pitch we have to play against England. Our thinking was that against Bangladesh the wicket would be helpful for the fast bowlers and against England there would be a spin pitch. We had told the curator that the ball should spin after the second day of play in the first Test match. But even on the fifth day the spinners did not get any help on the pitch. I hope to see a turn on the 9th day. You have to take 20 wickets. We were thinking how we can take this wicket. We thought that this pitch should be used in the best possible way and we can take 20 wickets against England only with the help of spin. The players who are coming here are all experienced: Azhar Mahmood Azhar Mahmood further said, ‘All the players who are coming here are experienced. All Pakistani players are experienced and have been playing first class cricket for a long time. He knows his home pitches and I don’t think there will be much pressure on him. Regarding Babar Azam’s drop in the second test, Pakistan’s assistant coach further said, ‘Babar Azam is our number one player in terms of technique and ability. Pakistan has a lot of cricket and that is why the selection committee has decided to rest Babar Azam. Pakistan also has to visit Australia, South Africa and Zimbabwe. We should use our situation in a great way. The reason we announced the team for one Test match was so that we could make all the changes. After this we are going to Australia to play white ball cricket. We know that Shaheen and other important players should be rested because after this we have to play cricket non-stop for 6 months.

There is very little hope that India will agree to play in Pakistan to participate in the Champions Trophy 2025: Khalid Mahmood
Khalid Mahmood said that if this happens then Pakistan Cricket Board will lose a lot of money. India vs Pakistan (Image Credit- Twitter X) Former Pakistan Cricket Board chief Khalid Mahmood believes that India will hardly send its team to his country Pakistan for the upcoming Champions Trophy 2025. Let us tell you, for some time now, India has completely refused to tour Pakistan due to political reasons. Khalid Mahmood believes that the ICC will definitely listen to the Board of Control for Cricket in India and other Asian teams like Sri Lanka, Afghanistan and Bangladesh will also not tour Pakistan for the Champion Trophy 2025 if India refuses to come here. He said that if this happens, the Pakistan Cricket Board will lose a lot of money. According to Cricket Pakistan, Khalid Mahmood said, “There is very little hope that India will agree to play in Pakistan. India is the richest cricket board. If they do not send their team to Pakistan, then I do not think Sri Lanka, Afghanistan and Bangladesh will also tour here.” Khalid Mahmood gave important advice to Pakistan Cricket Board Khalid Mahmood further said, ‘At this stage, the only thing you can do is to bring the rest of the boards to your side. The ICC will not ignore India’s demands and if this happens, it will not be right for Pakistan to make tit-for-tat plans. If India says that it will play matches outside Pakistan, then ICC events will not be hosted in their country. Due to this, the Pakistan Cricket Board may also have to face a lot of problems.’ For a long time, it has been seen that India has not participated in any of the matches of ICC events held in Pakistan and has appealed for another venue for its matches. So far it can be said that all the matches of Champions Trophy 2025 will be played in Pakistan only, but India has also agreed to the fact that they will not go to Pakistan to play the matches of Champions Trophy. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?
