Team Pakistan has faced a loss in the fourth T20I against their opponents in Pakistan’s tour of England. The tournament was held for both the teams to practise ahead of the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024.
The 4 match series was won by team England who won 2 matches, while the other two were abandoned.
Pakistan faced a 7 wicket loss against England in the 4th match of the series as England chased the target of 158 runs by losing 3 wickets.
Azam’s sloppy performance against England
Pakistan’s wicketkeeper-batsman Azam Khan had a very disappointing performance in the series. He was dismissed for a five-ball duck in the 11th over by Mark Wood.
Azam Khan is the son of Moin Khan and is getting severely trolled by fans as he dropped catches and was removed for a duck in the match.
Salman Butt critiques on Azam Khan’s fitness
Speaking on his official YouTube channel, former Pakistani player Salman Butt said Azam’s eyes were closed when he lost his wicket to Wood’s bowling. The former cricketer added Azam’s fitness will always be under scanner.
“People are going to speak about him. The way he got out today, his eyes were closed while facing the short ball, and then his wicket keeping. His fitness is always going to be under the scanner I think he has to decide on his career. He should work on his fitness, otherwise, it is going to be very difficult for him to play,” Butt said.
He added the Pakistan wicketkeeper-batter is prone to criticism especially because of the level of fitness he has.
“Everything related to Azam Khan will be criticized whenever he doesn’t perform. This is because what he presents is open to criticism. He invites criticism with the kind of fitness he carries. He had problems against the short ball,” he added.
