Australia beats Pakistan by 7 wickets in third T20 Australia vs Pakistan, 3rd T20I (Image Credit- Twitter X) The third match of the ongoing T20 series between Australia and Pakistan (AUS vs PAK) was played today on 18 November at Bellerive Oval ground. Let us tell you that in this match, former captain of Pakistan team Babar Azam wanted to go ahead and play the shot against spinner Adam Zampa. But Babar’s advance proved costly for them. After scoring 41 runs in 28 balls, Babar was out after playing a wrong shot. Babar wanted to play a big shot on the third ball of the 13th over of Pakistan’s innings, which batted first in the match, but the experienced Jampa showed cleverness and instead of bowling a length delivery, he bowled a full ball, which scattered Babar’s batsmen. So as soon as Babar was out in the match, the video of his dismissal quickly went viral on social media. See how Adam Zampa dismissed Babar Azam pic.twitter.com/4BHfocLHQO —Sunil Gavaskar (@gavaskar_theman) November 18, 2024 Australia registered an easy victory by 7 wickets If we talk about the match in detail, Pakistan won the toss and decided to bat first. Against the excellent bowling of the Australian team, Pakistan was all out for just 117 runs in 18.1 overs. For Pakistan, only Babar Azam could play the best inning of 41 runs. Apart from this, wicketkeeper Hasibullah Khan contributed 24 runs. Apart from this, no other player could play a big innings. On the other hand, the Australian bowlers performed amazingly in the match. Aaron Hardy got 3 wickets, while Spencer Johnson and Adam Zampa got 2 wickets each. Apart from this, Xavier Bartlett and Nathan Ellis also got 1-1 wicket. After this, when Australia set out to chase the easy target of 118 runs given by Pakistan, they easily achieved this target by losing 3 wickets in 11.2 overs. Batting in a stormy style for Australia, all-rounder Marcus Stoinis played a brilliant inning of 61* runs with the help of 5 fours and 5 sixes in 27 balls.
‘There is no place in your team’ Pakistani fans trolling Babar Azam during the second T20 match against Australia
Azam has scored 666 runs in 21 T20I matches played in the year 2024. Babar Azam (Image Credit- Twitter X) In the second T20 match against Australia at Sydney Cricket Ground, some Pakistani fans were seen trolling experienced batsman Babar Azam fiercely. The video trolling Azam is going viral very fast on social media. It is noteworthy that in the 21 T20 International matches played in the year 2024, the 30-year-old player has scored a total of 666 runs at a strike rate of 132.66. Under the captaincy of Babar, Pakistan had to be eliminated from the league stage in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. So now cricket fans have been seen venting their anger on Babar. In the second T20 match against Australia, some fans sitting in the stands were seen trolling Babar fiercely and saying, ‘You don’t get a place in the T20 team.’ Watch this video viral on social media Pakistan fans disrespecting Babar Azam in Sydney. “Teri jagah nahin banti mein T20 team” 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 This is not acceptable at all. He’s our former captain and he’s our pride. Sharam everyone. Stay strong, @babarazam258 — Farid Khan (@_FaridKhan) November 17, 2024 Also, let us tell you that former captain Babar Azam was also dropped from Pakistan’s Test team earlier this year. After a poor performance in the first Test match against England, the team management decided to drop Babar. In place of Babar, Kamran Ghulam was included in the team, who confirmed his place in the Test team by scoring a century in his debut match. This is not a good sign for Babar Azam in red ball cricket. On the other hand, apart from Test, Babar’s bat is not working in T20 also. Babar has been able to score only 6 runs in the two T20 matches played against Australia. So in the ODI series that ended before the T20 series, Babar’s performance was 37, 15* and 28* runs. Apart from this, Babar has also not been included in the Pakistani team for the upcoming white series against Zimbabwe. Now that the Champions Trophy 2025 is very close, and Babar not being able to perform for the Pakistani team in the white ball format, it may become a headache for the PCB in the future.
Ricky Ponting advised Babar Azam to follow Virat Kohli, gave a big reason

(Photo by Michael Steele-ICC/ICC via Getty Images) Pakistan’s star batsman Babar Azam has been struggling with poor form for some time. Due to this poor form, he was rested from the two Test matches against England. He played in the first test match, but could not do anything special with the bat. Meanwhile, former Australian captain Ricky Ponting has advised Babar Azam to follow the footsteps of Virat Kohli. Let us tell you that Pakistan had to face defeat against England in the first Test match of the home Test series. After this, the host team won both the matches and won the series 2-1. Like Babar, Virat Kohli was also struggling with form in 2022, but 2023 was a great season for him. That’s why Ricky Ponting feels that Kohli can help Babar regain his form to some extent. Babar Azam has not scored any half-century in his last 18 test innings. He said in the ICC review, the biggest challenge is how they bring Babar back into their team. They have to find a way to get Babar back into form and back into their (Test) team. Maybe Babar needs to step away for a while and stop even trying. Close the kit bag for a while and think about something else. Then hopefully he will come back refreshed. He further said that, you know, when you look at Babar’s statistics, it is somewhat similar to what we were talking about earlier for Virat Kohli. Virat took a break from the game for some time and returned refreshed. Babar also needs the same thing. Hopefully, we will again see Babar like before in his career. Let us tell you that Babar Azam has not scored any half-century in his last 18 Test innings. Babar’s average in the last 9 Tests since the start of the 2023 season has been 20.70, which is very disappointing.
AUS vs PAK: Babar Azam scored only 37 runs in the first ODI but former players are praising the Pakistani batsman.
Babar Azam had scored 37 runs in 44 balls with the help of four fours in the first ODI match played against Australia. Babar Azam (Pic Source-X) Former player Basit Ali is very happy with Babar Azam’s batting in the first ODI match played against Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne. Let us tell you that in the first ODI match played against Australia, Babar Azam had scored 37 runs in 44 balls with the help of four fours. According to the former player, Babar Azam is very hungry for runs and he has been seen in his best performance after a long time. Babar Azam had made a very good start in this match but the Pakistani batsman was bowled on the excellent ball of Adam Zampa. Basit Ali has shared a video on his official YouTube channel in which he said, ‘Babar Azam was looking in good form today. Today Babar was playing in top class. However, he went on the back foot against Adam Zampa and had to lose his wicket. It is good to see that Babar Azam is still hungry for runs. This very thing was missing in all formats for a long time but after so many years, he was again seen batting top class. Babar Azam will now have to make big scores: Basit Ali The former player further said, ‘Our people will not be happy at all with 37 runs. Everyone wants Babar Azam to score 137 runs. Similarly, Indian fans will not be happy with Virat Kohli’s inning of 70 runs because they want the experienced batsman to score 170 runs. If big players score 50 runs then it has no importance. However, this 37 runs is a very good sign that Babar will bat even better in the remaining matches. Let us tell you that the second ODI match between these two teams will be played in Adelaide on 8 November. Both the teams would definitely like to win the upcoming match. If Pakistan wants to survive in this ODI series, then it is very important for them to win the second ODI match. Babar Azam will definitely look to score big in this match.

Babar Azam will not be able to play against favorite team Zimbabwe, then Fakhar Zaman’s rhetoric becomes heavy.
Pakistan will be seen playing a three-match T20 and three-match ODI series on the Zimbabwe tour. Fakhar Zaman and BABAR AZAM (Image Credit- Twitter The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has today announced the squad for the team’s upcoming Australia and Zimbabwe T20 tour on October 27. On this tour, the Pakistani team will be seen playing a three-match ODI and the same number of T20 series. At the same time, the board has not given place to former captain Babar Azam and experienced opener Fakhar Zaman in the Pakistani team for the Zimbabwe tour. Fans are seen reacting quickly through social media regarding this big decision of PCB. Fans are seen making fun of Babar Azam on social media, while on the other hand, Zaman’s recent statements regarding the board have been criticized heavily. While sharing the meme, a fan wrote – ‘This is not good’ However, for your information, let us tell you that before the Zimbabwe tour, Babar Azam has been selected in the Pakistani team for the three-match ODI and T20 series of the same number of matches on the Australia tour. But Fakhar Zaman has been ignored in both these tours. It will be worth watching that without Babar and Fakhar on the Zimbabwe tour, how is the Pakistani team going to perform this time?

Kamran Ghulam has been included in Pakistan’s playing XI for the second test match in place of Babar Azam. Kamran Ghulam (Pic Source-X) Currently, the second test match between Pakistan and England is being played at Multan Cricket Stadium in Multan. In this match, Kamran Ghulam batted brilliantly and scored an important century in his Test debut for Pakistan. Kamran Ghulam did not spare any England bowler in this match and batted brilliantly against everyone. Let us tell you that Kamran Ghulam has been included in Pakistan’s playing XI for the second test match in place of Babar Azam. Babar Azam is one of the important players of Pakistan. However, he was dropped from the playing XI in the second Test match being played against England. Kamran Ghulam replaced Babar Azam brilliantly and scored a valuable century for his team. Talking about the second test match, Pakistan did not have such a good start and they lost their two wickets for just 19 runs. Abdullah Shafiq was out after scoring 7 runs while captain Shan Masood returned to the pavilion on a personal score of 3 runs. However, after this, Kamran Ghulam and Sam Ayub batted lethally and made a valuable partnership of 149 runs for the third wicket. Sam Ayub played a brilliant inning of 77 runs.

England leads 1-0 in the three-match Test series England is leading 1-0 in the 3-match Test series. In the first Test match played between these two teams, England won by an innings and 47 runs. At present, if we talk about the second test, despite the bad start, the host is in an excellent position at the moment. Still, the host has many players who can put their team on a strong position by batting lethally. If Pakistan team wants to survive in this test series then it is very important for them to win this match.

‘He is cricket for Pakistan…’ Rameez Raja on Babar Azam after being dropped from Pakistan’s Test team
Babar has not been selected for the remaining two Test matches against England. Ramiz Raja and babar Azam (Image Credit- Twitter Currently a three-match Test series is being played between Pakistan and England. So after the poor performance in the first test match, the Pakistan Cricket Board has taken a big decision and decided to drop some prominent cricketers including former captain Babar Azam from the test team. After this decision of PCB, the cricket world and many Pakistani players themselves criticized the board. On the other hand, now a new name has been added to this list of former Pakistani captain and well-known cricket commentator Ramiz Raja. Ramiz Raja gave a big statement Let us tell you that recently while discussing with Sky Sports, Rameez Raja said – It should have been for Babar to decide whether he wanted to leave the playing eleven or not. I think it was a knee-jerk reaction, the new selectors had come in, the general consensus was that he needed rest and he was completely dropped from the team. Now we need to understand that he sells cricket for Pakistan. And the debate is going on in Pakistan right now whether this will be another failure for Babar Azam or whether he is going to make a comeback. This keeps things interesting. Right now I don’t see any player in this Pakistan team who can sell cricket, because the sponsors are also a little cautious. Pakistan is continuously losing and now there is no real superstar playing in this test match. On the other hand, currently the second test match between Pakistan and England is being played at Multan Cricket Stadium. It will be worth seeing that after losing the first match, can Pakistan make a comeback in this match after such big changes or not?

In this post he said- That’s why Pakistan has not won for some time, go 1-0 down in the series and then decide to drop their best player in the form of Babar Azam. I think Pakistan cricket is full of surprises. This is an absolutely stupid decision, unless he himself has asked for leave. See this tweet of Michael Vaughn So Pakistan haven’t won in a while .. Go 1 nil down in the series and decide to drop the best player in @babarazam258 .. I guess Pakistan cricket is full of surprises but this tops the lot .. absolutely stupid decision .. unless he has asked for a break !!! — Michael Vaughan (@MichaelVaughan) October 13, 2024 Pakistani team for the second and third test matches Shan Masood (captain), Saud Shakeel (vice-captain), Aamir Jamal, Abdullah Shafiq, Hasibullah (wk), Kamran Ghulam, Mehran Mumtaz, Mir Hamza, Mohammad Ali, Mohammad Huraira, Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Noman Ali, Sam Ayub, Sajid Khan, Salman Ali Aga and Zahid Mehmood.
