Pakistan's Against England? | Who is Responsible For Pakistan's Worst Defeat?

Who is responsible for Pakistan's worst defeat in ODI series against England?

Karachi - There is a term in cricket commentary, 'Bowling does not happen, batting does not come and fielding cannot be done' and this term fits the Pakistan cricket team which is present in England these days.

After losing the first two matches of the three-match ODI series, the Green Shirts not only lost the chance to win the series in the land of whites 47 years later, but also lost to a team whose captain was new and The players were also inexperienced.

Owen Morgan, the permanent captain of the English One team, has been in quarantine with the players since the series against Sri Lanka. He lauded this historic victory under the leadership of his deputy Ben Stokes.

In the first match, the national team scored a total of 141 runs on the board but could not defend it. In the second match, despite Hassan Ali's superb bowling, the entire team scored only 195 runs in pursuit of 248 runs. Is out

And so, 47 years later, the team's dream of defeating England in the ODI series ended in a 2-0 defeat.

What Is The Problem With The Pakistan Team In England?

Cricket experts say that there are many problems with the Pakistan cricket team in England which are visible to cricket fans and observers, but not to the cricket board. Neither the batting order of the team has been arranged keeping in view the local conditions nor the selection of players is seen under any plan.

Even the England team whose players were selected two days before the series, its players are attacking Pakistan as if they are Shaheen and the victim is the Pakistani team.

Except for Fakhr Zaman, Babar Azam and Saud Shakeel, no batsman is playing with understanding of swing and seam conditions. So far, Pakistan has scored only one half-century in the series, which was also scored by Saud Shakeel, who is playing his second match.

Opener Imam-ul-Haq has so far faced three balls in two matches and scored just one run. In-form batsman Mohammad Rizwan, who starts the innings in the T20, failed to bat well at number four.

Critics are also objecting to feeding Sohaib Maqsood, who batted at number three in the PSL, to Shadab Khan, who is at number six and without any performances.

Hassan Ali, who batted at lower numbers and scored 22 runs in an over in the second ODI, is being sent to number nine, while Faheem Ashraf, who hit five off 12 balls in one match and in the other, is coming up. Made a run on nine balls.

With Shadab Khan, who has consistently failed in the team despite being a good league spinner, Usman Qadir, Haris Rauf's consistent runs in international matches and Shaheen Shah Afridi's low wickets are no less of a headache for Pakistan.

 

'Our Team Is Running In Auto Mode'

Former Test cricketer Haroon Rashid, who has been associated with the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for many years, told VOA that when the national team is not selected based on domestic cricket, it is like Pakistan. Cricket is happening in England with the team.

"First of all, we have to acknowledge that our team is not capable of consistently performing well," he said.

"Teams all over the world thrive on playing domestic cricket, but our team is trained on training camps. So I will understand it in auto mode. We play very few ODIs at the domestic level," he said. And T20s play more. "

Senior commentator and analyst Mirza Iqbal Baig does not consider the national team to be in auto mode but he blames the national team coaches for this failure.

He said that we are happy to win against small teams.

 We won against small teams. They go and play happy weddings, but whenever a strong team comes forward, our hands and feet swell against it. "

He termed the recent achievements of the national team as insufficient and said that Pakistan had beaten South Africa 2-1 in their home series, but only when some of their players went to play in the IPL.

He said that Imam-ul-Haq's batting average in ODI cricket is good, but he fails against big teams.

 

'National Team Is Not Out Of PSL T20 Mode Yet'

Mirza Iqbal Baig also said that the national team is not coming out of PSL mode and this is the biggest reason for poor performance of Pakistan cricket in ODI cricket.

He also said that chief selector Muhammad Waseem uses laptops and shows big figures at the time of selection, but the team's performance is still not improving.

According to Haroon Rashid, when there is a big difference between a country's domestic level and an international level, it is clear in such a series.

He said that England's domestic structure is strong, so the newcomers did not have much difficulty in adjusting to international cricket.

According to Haroon Rashid, when we do not bring our domestic cricket close to the standard of international cricket, our team will continue to win in one or two matches, but the performance will not be consistent.

He also expressed the hope that cricket fans in the T20 could expect some improvement from the national team.

On the other hand, Mirza Iqbal Baig said that the team played inexperienced England, but the lack of experience and planning was seen in the Pakistan camp.
