There is no bitterness from my side – Shan Masood
Pakistan’s Test captain Shan Masood while talking on BBC Stumped said,
There is no bitterness from my side. I have always been like an open book in front of the media and I have tried to present myself in the best possible light. People have every right to ask whatever questions they want. I want to represent the best of me and make my character reflect who I am. I’m good at accepting constructive criticism and I’m also good at filtering things.
Shan Masood said this about Babar Azam being out of the team
After the defeat in the first match of the series against England, Pakistan made major changes in the squad for the last two matches. The selectors had dropped players like Babar Azam, Shaheen Afridi, Naseem Shah. Spinners Noman Ali and Sajid Khan got a place in the team, due to which the team captured the series.
At the same time, Kamran Ghulam was included in the squad in place of Babar. On this, Shaan Masood says that there is no harm in going out and taking rest sometimes. Babar is a big player and knows how to make a comeback.
