Lahore: Former Test cricketer Kamran Akmal says that the wrong playing XI against Afghanistan led to the defeat in the series. We should enter the field with full force against New Zealand.
Speaking on the occasion of Ramadan Cricket Tournament in Lahore, the former wicketkeeper-batter’s position was that it is unreasonable to debut four players in one match against Afghanistan. It is excessive to introduce four new players in 11. Even if four new players play. However, a team like Afghanistan should have made three zeros. New players should be fed with the experienced players who went with them. It has now become the standard of Pakistan cricket that we don’t get to red the wicket, the mistakes are ours.
Kamran Akmal said that the previous cricket board abused Umar Akmal, Umar Akmal was placed in grade two. When he came back after the ban, he faced difficulties. Umar Akmal for the team in PSL too. played. Umar Akmal’s turn kept coming in the last three hours. Our seed boys always played for the team. Guys like Umar Akmal should be seen by the selectors. He played well in the Pakistan Cup as well. I am hopeful of the selectors that the upcoming Umar Akmal will get a chance in the series.
The former wicket keeper batsman said that Babar Azam should be seen to make the team, there should be no likes or dislikes, which is harming the players and Pakistan cricket. Be it Umar Akmal or Azam Khan or Babar Azam, everyone should focus on fitness. Should. Giving opportunity to young players is a good thing, it will give them confidence.
He further said that there is a dire need for cricket like Ramadan tournaments to promote club cricket. We have been playing club cricket and Ramadan tournaments all our lives. Ramadan cricket was not being held for 15 years, now it is good that matches are also being held in Lahore. have started
