He said that in the middle overs our spinners did not bowl as they should have, anything can happen in cricket, we will try to win all the remaining matches.
Babar Azam said that I don’t have the burden of captaincy, I only think of captaincy while fielding and focus on my batting while batting. Missing Naseem Shah a lot. Our bowling line-up is excellent but we are not clicking.
