The former senior crickets are expressing their analysis of the recent performance of the national cricket team including the key players Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, and Shaheen Shah Afridi.
Meanwhile, former Pakistani captain Shoaib Malik expressed that the people are optimistic about the performance of the green shirts during the ICC mega event. He said that Saud Shakeel is the best option as a main batsman.
“The Pakistani pacers Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf, and Shaheen Shah Afridi have created a bond, but unfortunately, Naseem Shah is out of the squad due to his injury,” Malik said.
He further added that the other bowlers should have been given a chance before the mega event so that the team would have a proper replacement in case of an unfortunate event.
