Cricket: England's Harry Brook hit his maiden triple century on the fourth day of the opening Test against Pakistan in Multan.
Brook STUNS with maiden triple century | 01:22 Pakistan ’s new selection panel have made a controversial call on arguably their nation’s two biggest names with Babar Azam and Shaheen Shah Afridi dropped for the final two Tests against England in the latest off-field drama to engulf the nation.
The former Australian fast bowler - along with Pakistan captain Shan Masood - called for continuity and the playing group to be backed following their two-nil loss to Bangladesh in August and September. The call to drop a player who was once regarded as a challenger to the likes of Virat Kohli, Steve Smith, Joe Root and Kane Williamson for the mantle of best batter in the world has been met with widespread criticism.
“India didn’t bench Virat Kohli during his rough stretch between 2020 and 2023, when he averaged 19.33, 28.21, and 26.50, respectively,” Zaman said. Political instability is threatening to make all three Tests be played in Multan, while the government’s links to the PCB have made for remarkable administrative turnover with five different chairs in the last three years as the PCB’s make up alters with every new government.
In the first Test against England, he took two wickets but was plundered at more than five an over as he struggled to find other tricks on a flat pitch.Aaqib Javed - who is a member of the new selection panel - did not rule a line through any of the discarded players returning to the Pakistan line-up in the future however.
