He scored only 30 and 5 runs in both the innings against England on a batting-friendly pitch in the first Test, after which he is in danger of being dropped from the team. Hours after Pakistan’s defeat in the Multan Test, the Pakistan Cricket Board formed a new selection committee, which has reportedly decided to drop Babar from the second Test squad. Babar Azam has not been able to score even a half-century in Test cricket for a long time. Babar Azam left the captaincy of all three formats after the World Cup 2023.

Shoaib Akhtar is upset with the continuous poor performance of Pakistan team, gave a big statement after the defeat against England in the first test.
In the first test, England players performed brilliantly and won the match by an innings and 47 runs. Shoaib Akhtar (Photo Source: Twitter) The three-match Test series between Pakistan and England has started. The first match of this test series was played at Multan Cricket Stadium in Multan. In the first test, England players performed brilliantly and won the match by an innings and 47 runs. Talking about Pakistan team, they batted very well in the first innings but the team’s bowlers failed to leave their mark in this match due to which a lot of pressure was put on the hosts. Not only this, the batsmen of Pakistan team also performed disappointingly in the second innings. Former fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar has given his side regarding the performance of Pakistan team. He is unhappy with his team’s performance. Let us tell you that despite scoring 556 runs in the first innings, Pakistan had to face defeat in this match. According to Cricket Pakistan, Shoaib Akhtar said, ‘You will reap what you sow. In this period I have seen the decline of Pakistan cricket. It’s okay to lose but the game should be close. However, whatever we saw in the last two days, we have given up all hope from the team. England scored more than 800 and also Bangladesh beat you. Fans are saying that Pakistan should withdraw its name from the World Test Championship: Shoaib Akhtar The former player further said, ‘Fans are saying that Pakistan should withdraw its name from the World Test Championship. The ICC must be wondering whether we should send teams to Pakistan to keep the Test level alive? This is really heart breaking. This is very bad news for the cricket fans of Pakistan and also for the upcoming talented players. I would request the PCB to fix this thing as soon as possible. If your management and captain are weak then factionalism is seen there. If the captain is selfish then there is factionalism. Same is the case with coaches who are afraid of the captain. Captains give their views regarding selection and this has been going on since my playing days.

Pakistan Cricket Board is going to remove Shan Masood from captaincy! Same to same happened with Babar Azam also
After this disappointing performance of the Pakistan team, captain Shan Masood’s captaincy is in danger, as per the report of Cricket Pakistan. Shan Masood (Source X) After Pakistan’s crushing defeat in the Multan Test, criticism over the team’s declining performance has intensified. Recently, the team could not bounce back after losing the series 0-2 in the Bangladesh tour, and also faced a crushing defeat in the first Test against England. A flat pitch was demanded for the Multan Test, in which Pakistan scored 556 runs in the first innings. But England proved to be the lion and declared their innings after scoring 823 runs and all out Pakistan for 220 runs in the second innings and won by 47 runs and an innings. However, on 11 October, a new record was set for Pakistan cricket, when they became the first team to lose a match by an innings despite scoring over 500 runs in the first innings. After this disappointing performance of the Pakistan team, the captaincy of captain Shan Masood is in danger, as cricket pakistan As stated in the report. Pakistan Cricket Board is going to snatch the captaincy of Shan Masood Not only in Test cricket, Pakistan team is also performing poorly in white ball cricket. After reaching the final in the 2022 T20 World Cup, the team has consistently failed to reach the knockout stages of ICC events. Apart from this, after the disappointing defeat of the 2023 World Cup, Babar Azam was stripped of the captaincy and Shaheen Afridi was made the captain of the T20 team. Captaincy was also taken away from Babar Azam Ahead of the T20 World Cup 2024, Gary Kirsten and Jason Gillespie were appointed coaches of white-ball and red-ball cricket respectively. But things got worse when Babar Azam was given the captaincy again before the tournament and two months after Pakistan’s exit from the group stage, he decided or was forced by someone to leave the captaincy. The current times of Pakistan cricket are going through difficult times, where the decline in the performance of the team is clearly visible. Be it Test cricket or white ball cricket, teams everywhere are struggling and need concrete improvements to move forward. In such a situation, the board will be looking for a new captain.
