Aqib Javed, Pakistan’s interim head coach, has definitively supported their talent after their trination series defeat to New Zealand. Stressing the broader view, Aqib fast noted at a media conference that a few subpar shows do not bring power to define a player. Aqib Javed, after the trination series final in Karachi, emphasized the need of selecting the most suitable alternatives in oneday cricket.
“A few players could have difficulties in a game or two, while others would handle circumstances nicely.” That does not mean they are lacking in ability,” Javed stated. He further admitted that Pakistan suffered some regrettable setbacks, including Babar Azam early dismissal in all three games and Saim Ayub’s injury that derails the team’s schedule.
Still, Aqib Javed had some advice for his players after he recognized that contemporary ODI cricket has changed, especially between overs 11 and 40, where aggressive but measured play is needed. He advised batsmen to use the four fielders outside the inner circle rather than take hasty shots.
Regarding Babar Azam’s advancement to the front opening, Javed dismissed worries as insignificant given that changing a No. Particularly in foreign settings where swing and movement render shot selection more important, three batter to open is not a big change. “Babar ought to get started on some pitches,.” He is ready for a significant innings and I am sure he will rise to the occasion most needed by the country,” he said.
Having the tricountry series final defeat in the past few weeks, Aqib Javed and the Pakistan squad can now concentrate on honing their strategy for the next Champions Trophy. Should Pakistan be able to meet their earlier marks, Aqib could be at the helm of the side with the PCB removing the prefix “interim” from his designation.
