There was uproar in Pakistan, the bigwigs reprimanded them fiercely
Pakistan vs Bangladesh Test Series: There is an uproar in Pakistan at this time after Pakistan lost two consecutive matches to Bangladesh. Not only Pakistani team captain Shan Masood, but the team management and PCB are also now surrounded by questions. There are so many questions that even if we start answering them, it will not be possible. Meanwhile, with the defeat, the way to reach the final of the World Test Championship has almost closed for Pakistan. Now the former veterans have also started the work of cornering them. It remains to be seen how the Pakistani team will come out from where it is at this time.
Javed Miandad raised serious questions
After Pakistan’s defeat in the second Test against Bangladesh, former Test captain Javed Miandad said that it is painful that our cricket has come to this level. Bangladesh should be given credit for their performance, but the way Pakistan’s batting collapsed in this series is a bad sign. Miandad believes that the players’ confidence has decreased due to the discord in the Pakistan Cricket Board i.e. PCB. He says that he will not blame only the players, because whatever has happened in the PCB in the last one and a half years and the change in captaincy and management has affected the team.
Inzamam-ul-Haq and Younis Khan are also saddened by the defeat
Former captain Inzamam-ul-Haq said that losing three series and not being able to register a win in 10 Test matches is worrying. He said that home series were always considered our best chance to beat the best teams, but for that to happen the batsmen need to score runs. Veteran batsman Younis Khan said that when a team goes on a losing streak mentally, it becomes difficult to make a comeback. He said that Pakistani batsmen have scored runs in the past, but now they need to be mentally strong to overcome this crisis.
The coach gave advice to PCB and selectors
Meanwhile, the news is that Test coach Jason Gillespie and limited overs coach Gary Kirsten have advised the PCB and selectors not to panic as this will further reduce the confidence of the players. Meanwhile, Gillespie and high performance coach Tim Nielsen will return to Australia for a short break. Pakistan will now play its next series from here in October, when the England cricket team will come to Pakistan to play three Tests. It remains to be seen how the Pakistani team recovers from the shock of this defeat.
