Former Pakistan Spinner Saeed Ajmal has launched a terrible attack on PCB due to the relegation of Babar Azama from the T20I team to visit New Zealand. Ajmal thinks Babar should have been supported because he is one of the best players on the team.
Pakistan made some surprising changes in his composition to visit New Zealand. While the team did not have many surprises, the T20I team also saw the stars of the Crquetter Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan.
The selection saw the mixed reactions of the former crisis in the country. While some of them supported the move to give some more chances of fearless young people, some of them criticized the move to drop a player who was talisman for his country in this format.

Saeed Ajmal Tears PCB to Drop Babar Azam
During his interview with Sportstar, Saeed Ajmal criticized Babar Azam’s ejection with strong words. Ajmal called into question the move to drop the player of Babar’s stature and even asked the former cries in the country to keep their mouths.
“Aapke paas ek hi toh star Hai (you have only one star). If you also degrade it, how will your cricket be started then? These are big questions. Our former cricket should keep closed,” Ajmal remarked.
Ajmal further asked fans and PCB to patience with Babar and let him pass his bad form. He quoted the example of Sachin Tendulkar, who also did not score in every match.
“As a cricket, it must be understood that bad patches are part of the players in your career. You can’t play cricket in the same way all your life. Even if you were Sachin Tendulkar, you couldn’t achieve 100 run in every match,” he added.
Saeed Ajmal returns Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan
Former Pakistan offspinner also supported Babar Azama and Mohammad Rizwan and welcomed their incredible consistency with the baton over the years. He scored PCB because of the way Babar kicked out of the T20I team and claimed that even the number of other players was not great.
“Look, the way you have removed them is not right. It’s not like they are the only ones who haven’t achieved the hits, while others have. This is not the case. In ideal case, the selectors should sit with Babar and talk about vacation so he can get stronger,” Ajmal PCB advised.
“Babar (Azam) and (Mohammad) Rizwan are great players. Their statistics are as good as everyone’s, but the only difference is that they are not aggressive, but they are still running. Our guys suddenly realized that in the international crisis they all play aggressively,” he noticed.
Speaking about the issue of strike rates, Ajmal cited the example of the Virat Kohli, who was immensely successful in the step with a stab, not aggressively from the first ball.
Low speed of Babar Azam in T20 Crket
Babar Azam has received great criticism from the media in the country and former crickets for its recent form to hit. He scored 87 runs in two matches in the recently concluded champion trophy at a strike of only 75.
Babar has a great record at T20is, but the low strike rate has often led to his criticism. At a time when the T20 criquet develops rapidly, Babar’s inability to quickly change Gears did not help the cause of the team.
He scored 4223 driving in 128 t20i on average 39.83, but the strike less than 130 is often considered a weakness in the hit line. The 30-year-old must adapt to a modern cristen to get back to the team.
