After the humiliating defeat in the first two Test matches in England, seven players were removed from the national squad during the series.
Surprisingly, these seven players include players who were not even in the playing eleven of both matches.
This decision of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is being strongly criticized by former cricketers. Captain Shahid Afridi, who took Pakistan to the semi-finals in the 2011 World Cup, said that the logic of this decision is not understood, even the selection of replacement players is beyond understanding.
He said that T20 players have been included in the team for the Test match to be held in England? What kind of thinking and behavior is this?
Shahid Afridi raised the question of why the coach was removed after just 5 Test matches?
The former captain said that this is the most surprising decision ever made by a selection committee consisting of so many experienced selectors.
