Pakistan’s three star players Babar Azam, Shaheen Afridi and Naseem Shah have been left out of the second Test against England. The Pakistan Cricket Board dropped all three for the second and third Tests against England. The cricket world is shocked by the dropping of all three star players together. This decision of PCB is not acceptable to many experts and former Pakistani cricketers. Meanwhile, England captain Ben Stokes has refused to give his opinion on this matter.
Ben Stokes was asked in the press conference on Monday that Babar Azam, Shaheen and Naseem were dropped from the Pakistan team, what is his opinion on this? So Stokes replied that this is an issue of Pakistan cricket. I have nothing to do with it. Stokes did not play in the first Test between Pakistan and England due to being unfit. He will be seen showing his strength in the second test starting from Tuesday.
At present, England has a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. England won the first match by an innings and 47 runs after posting a huge score of 823/7.
Apart from this, Pakistan selector Aaqib Javed said on this whole matter that, we are confident that this break from international cricket will help these players to regain their fitness, confidence and mental stability, so that they will be in a better position for future challenges. Will return. He is still one of our finest players and is ready to contribute to Pakistan cricket. We are committed to fully supporting them during this period so that they can come back even stronger.
