‘This time there was no scapegoat, GOAT was killed…’, statement of former Indian cricketer on Babar Azam

Aakash Chopra On Babar Azam: Pakistan had to face a shameful defeat in the Multan Test. Pakistan scored 556 runs in the first innings, but the British registered a memorable victory by an innings and 47 runs. Now the selection committee of Pakistan Cricket Board has made major changes before the second test. Pakistan’s legendary batsman Babar Azam and fast bowlers Shaheen Afridi and Naseem Shah were shown the way out. Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra gave his reaction on the exclusion of these greats. Aakash Chopra raised questions on the selection committee of Pakistan Cricket Board.

Aakash Chopra said that the one whom you kept calling your all time great, you have thrown him out? He said that this time Pakistan cricket did not kill the scapegoat but the All Time Great (GOAT). He said that Pakistan’s defeat in the Multan Test is very surprising. This will be remembered in history, you scored 556 runs in the first innings, but despite this you are not able to save the Test. The former Indian opener said that Babar Azam is no less than an all-time great among the fans in Pakistan, but what did you do with your all-time great? You showed the all time great out of the team. This is a big blow to his reputation.

Aakash Chopra further says that yes, it is true that Babar Azam has failed to touch the fifty-run mark in the last 18 test innings. Babar Azam had played an inning of 161 runs against New Zealand in December 2022, since then he has been continuously flopping. However, despite this, Aakash Chopra believes that it is not a solution to show Babar Azam the way out. He says that if you take any of your players out of the field, how will he return to his form?
