Michael Vaughan On Babar Azam: Pakistan had to face a shameful defeat in the Multan Test. However, Pakistan scored 556 runs in the first innings, but could not avoid defeat. After this defeat, Pakistan led by Shan Masood was badly embarrassed. At the same time, after this, Pakistan Cricket Board took big action and showed the way out to players like Babar Azam, Shaheen Afridi and Naseem Shah. Pakistan Cricket Board said that these players have been given rest, but former cricketers of Pakistan themselves expressed disappointment over the decision. Now former England captain Michael Vaughan has given his reaction on this issue.
Michael Vaughan believes that leaving out players like Babar Azam, Shaheen Afridi and Naseem Shah is a completely stupid decision. Michael Vaughan has written in his post – Pakistan has not won for a long time. Now it is trailing 1-0 in the 3 test match series against England, but in this situation it has shown the way out to its best player. I think Pakistan cricket is full of surprises from top to bottom, this decision is completely stupid. Michael Vaughan believes that you cannot give rest to your best player unless he demands rest from himself.
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 !!!
