Even after 4 year’s Babar Azam don’t know how to do captaincy: Kamran Akmal

Srinagar: Former Pakistan cricketer has lashed out at Pakistan skipper Babar Azam after side’s loss on the fifth T20I against New Zealand.

Speaking on his YouTube channel, Akmal lashed out at Babar, saying that even after four years of being in the position, he still doesn’t know how to handle it. 

“Speaking of their mistakes, they deflect and accuse us of criticism. But our focus is on their captaincy, not their performance. We’re not blind to their abilities. He (Babar Azam) still doesn’t know how to do captaincy after four years – he doesn’t even know which bowler to send out at what time. It’s no surprise that they lost when they continued to make the same mistakes. We didn’t control our errors, and that’s why they emerged victorious,” he said.

Kamran lashed out at Babar for giving the ball to Shadab instead of Iftikhar Ahmed in the fifth T20I game. 

“If both the left-handed batsmen were on the crease, the logical choice would have been to give the ball to Iftikhar Ahmed. But instead, we saw the leg-spinner Shadab Khan was given the over and was being continuously beaten by the Blackcaps batters. It would have been wise to rest him and bring in another all-rounder to give the team a chance to regain their footing,” he concluded.
