Pakistan’s team is playing a TRAI series against the UAE and Afghanistan before the Asia Cup. In this series, the Pakistani team is getting upset because it lost the match against Afghanistan. In the match on 2 September, Afghanistan team defeated Pakistan by 18 runs. The Afghan team scored only 169 runs while batting first, in response, Pakistan’s team could score only 151 runs. After this defeat of Pakistan, its batsmen were exposed. The biggest thing is the figure of zero on which the most questions are being raised. Let us tell you what is the matter?
Pakistan ‘zero’
Pakistan’s team proved to be a bad failure on the field of Sharjah. Salman Aga’s army was very upset in front of Afghan spinners. Pakistan’s team played so bad from the 8th over to the 17th over, which no one would expect. Pakistan, actually chasing the target, hit 9 fours and sixes for 7.3 overs, but after this, he did not get a four from his bat till the 17th over. That means a single boundary came out of the bat of Pakistan’s team for 74 balls. This zero opens the pole of the power of Pakistani batting and it is really a serious question before the Asia Cup.
What will happen against India?
If Pakistan’s team has not been able to put a single boundary in 74 balls against Afghanistan, then what will happen to its batsmen against Indian bowlers? This is clear that Pakistani batsmen get trapped badly against spinners. In the absence of Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam, this batting looks more weak. In the Asia Cup, not only India, Sri Lanka and Afghan spinners will also disturb the Pakistani batsmen. Let us know that the Asia Cup is starting from 9 September. The Indian team is going to reach UAE on 4 September. India-Pakistan will have a high profile match on 14 September.
