After the defeat in the series against England, national team captain Babar Azam issued a statement, acknowledging that to win, the strike rate must be improved and players need to play modern cricket to get back on the winning track.
Speaking at a press conference in London following the loss in the final and fourth T20 match of the series against England, captain Babar Azam expressed regret over the series defeat. He emphasized the importance of winning the series to enter the T20 World Cup with high morale.
He mentioned that the batsmen did not show responsibility in the middle overs and lost wickets, resulting in a lower score. Additionally, the bowlers did not perform well and conceded too many runs.
He stated that all players, including Azam Khan, were selected on merit, and questions arise after a defeat. Babar Azam expressed confidence that the World Cup is a completely different game where they will deliver better results. Although unfamiliar with the conditions in the USA, he is well-acquainted with the conditions in the West Indies.
Captain Babar Azam emphasized that all players are aware of their roles and that everyone will need to take responsibility in the World Cup.
