Former England cricket captain Michael Vaughan has criticized Pakistan’s recent decision to drop star player Babar Azam during the three-test series against England. Despite Azam’s recent struggles with consistency in scoring runs, Vaughan expressed his outrage at the choice to leave him out of the team.
Vaughan took to social media to express his disbelief, calling the decision “absolutely stupid” and questioning the rationale behind dropping the team’s best player, especially after going 1-0 down in the series. He hinted that perhaps Azam had requested a break from the team, which would explain the unexpected move.
However, despite the absence of Babar Azam in the last two tests against England, Pakistan managed to secure a series victory, their first on home soil since 2021. This unexpected success has raised some eyebrows and has left fans and experts wondering about the team’s decision-making process.
Looking ahead, Pakistan is scheduled to play a series of ODIs and T20Is against Australia and Zimbabwe in the coming weeks. The squad for the upcoming matches has been announced, with notable players like Mohammad Rizwan, Shaheen Shah Afridi, and Haris Rauf set to lead the team.
The decision to drop Babar Azam remains a topic of discussion among cricket enthusiasts, with many questioning the impact it may have had on the team’s performance. As Pakistan prepares for their upcoming matches, all eyes will be on how they fare without their star player and whether the decision to exclude him was indeed the right one.
