It is okay that they are out, but the issue is that Waqar Younis will ruin Pakistan’s cricket. Ahmed further said- This third class selection committee should be ashamed of itself for dropping Abrar and Kamran Ghulam from the team. Where is this Waqar Younis who keeps presenting himself as a big legend? I don’t understand how these two have been dropped.
PCB will use Kookaburra balls for home Test matches, while Duke balls will be used for the domestic season
The Pakistan Cricket Board has taken this decision only after choosing the brand of cricket balls of its choice as per the ICC rules. PCB (Image Credit- Twitter X) The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has recently decided that it is going to use Kookaburra balls for domestic Test matches. After this decision of the PCB, in the ongoing World Test Championship cycle 2023-25, the Pakistan cricket team will be seen playing a total of 7 Test matches on home soil with the Kookaburra ball. In these seven matches, Pakistan has proposed 2 Test matches against Bangladesh, 3 against England and 2 against West Indies. The Pak team will be seen playing all these Test matches in August, October and early next year. However, the Pakistan Cricket Board will continue to use Duke balls for the senior team for domestic cricket seasons and tournaments. Also, let us tell you that the PCB has taken this decision after a well-analyzed research based on the condition of the home ground and pitch. Apart from this, when it comes to grassroot level and junior cricket, PCB will be seen using Aceline and Greys balls. These balls will cover all types of matches of Pakistan’s Under-13, Under-17 and Under-19 teams. PCB took this decision after the appointment of Tony Hemming It is worth noting that recently the Pakistan Cricket Board has appointed Australia’s renowned pitch curator Tony Hemming as the head curator of PCB. So the pitches will be prepared under the supervision of Hemming for Pakistan’s domestic as well as international cricket schedule of 2024-25. However, before the construction of the pitches, the head curator advised the board to insist on changing the ball according to the format, so that along with the experience of the fans, quality cricket can also develop. Also, there is a possibility that the kind of pitch Hamming is going to make in the coming time, there will be an equal balance between ball and bat.

Babar Azam (Pic Source x) Former player Basit Ali has recently raised questions on the International Cricket Council. He raised this question when Pakistan team’s best batsman Babar Azam retained the first position in the ICC ODI batting rankings. Basit Ali jokingly said that Babar Azam would be very happy that he has retained the first position in the latest ICC rankings. Basit Ali said this while sharing a video on his official YouTube channel. Basit Ali said, ‘When I saw the ICC ODI batting rankings, Babar Azam was at the top. Rohit Sharma was in second place and Shubman Gill was in third place. Virat Kohli was in fourth place. After this I did not see many names because Travis Head and Rachin Ravindra were not there. I think the ICC does not want to see Babar Azam performing well. Babar Azam will be very happy that he is the number 1 batsman in the ODI rankings. Who gives this ranking? In what way are Babar Azam and Shubman Gill in this list?’ What kind of ranking does ICC give: Basit Ali The former player further said, ‘Babar Azam played his last ODI in the World Cup last year. In that World Cup, we also saw Virat Kohli, Travis Head, Quinton de Kock and Rachin Ravindra. They scored three to four centuries in this tournament. Mohammad Rizwan and Fakhar Zaman scored centuries from Pakistan. Babar Azam did not score a single century. Babar Azam scored his last century against Nepal during the Asia Cup. What kind of ranking do they give? People in ICC are enemies of Babar Azam. If you ask Babar who should be in the first position right now, he will choose Travis Head or Virat Kohli. He will not even take his own name. There will be no Impact Player rule in IPL 2025..! Jay Shah gave a big statement Yuvraj Singh had a heart attack because of Sourav Ganguly…!
