Babar Azam absent as Mohsin Naqvi brings a secret message to the Pakistani Kripket team before the conflict of India
Pakistani Kriket Babar Azam was missing the team training on the eve of the long -awaited match against India, because the PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi gave a motivational speech.
Naqvi is believed to have invited his side to win the match “at all costs”. The absence of Babar Azama from training has caused concern about his inaccessibility for the match against India.
Babar is the only player from the Pakistani team that missed this training that is also believed to be their last before the big game. Therefore, Naqvi decided to keep the players motivated by some talks about PEP Dubai.
Babar Azam to play against India? Aaqib JAVED reacts
When Pakistan’s head coach Aaqib Javed asked about Babar Azama at a press conference, he made it clear that the stars had decided to rest. So there is no official update regarding Babar’s availability for the match.
Babar Azam has achieved half a century in the first match against New Zealand, but has criticized for his slow blow, in which he barely showed any intention. The right back fought for the rhythm during his inings and was finally fired to 64 of 90 balls.
Pakistan persecuted a solid target of 321 runs, and the beating Babar Azama did not help their cause at all. As a result, he exploded for trying to play for individual performances instead of playing for a nation.

Reports also claim that PCB was not satisfied with the selection of the team and it took some time to interact with players and coaching staff.
