PCB has finally come to the senses, plans to get rid of spent cartridges in T20

After losing the series, the team management came to their senses and decided to get rid of the spent cartridges in the third T20 today.

With the arrival of the Islanders, the journey to the restoration of international cricket in Pakistan has accelerated, but the national team is looking restless. And don’t let them get easy victories, the world number one host team was being declared as the favorite in the T20 series played in Lahore, but the islanders, who entered the field without many seniors, gave a surprising performance and won both the matches. The series also took its name. The experimental playing XI selected by the head coach and chief selector Misbah-ul-Haq failed to make any impression in the second match after the first match and surrendered without a fight. Failed to stop the flood of runs in the second match as well, no continuity was seen in the performance of anyone except for one spell of hat-trick scorer Muhammad Hasnain, despite the home conditions, the batsmen also remained a picture of helplessness.

Apart from Imad Wasim who scored 47 runs in the second match, none of the opponents posed a threat to the bowlers. That not a single batsman could score fifty, the series is out of Pakistan’s hands, the host team’s coach and chief selector Misbah-ul-Haq and the players are under severe pressure. Before the third match played today, the fear of a clean sweep is green shirts. A nervous, high-spirited Sri Lankan side, young but brimming with talent and spirit, the players have recovered from the pressure of facing the world’s number one side, with the visitors desperate for a third straight win. , the experiment of trying Ahmed Shahzad and Umar Akmal to fill the void of the neglected Shoaib Malik and Mohammad Hafeez failed miserably, and it was considered to try Iftikhar Ahmed and Haris Sohail in their place.

According to the report, Fakhr Zaman, who failed in the second after being rested in the first match, is likely to be given a chance. For a big total, Pakistan will also have to wait for Babar Azam’s return to form. Wahab Riaz will be given rest to Mohammad Amir in bowling. It may be added, if it is decided to drop Shadab Khan, Mohammad Nawaz will get a chance. On the other hand, the center of hopes of the Sri Lankan team will be the in-form Bhanuka Rajapakse, Danushka Guna Thalaka, who played a good innings in the first match, can also get sixes, Sheehan Jayasuriya and captain Dawson Shanaka are among the aggressive batsmen, both has shown glimpses of his potential, a fifty from any of these batsmen will demoralize the Pakistani bowlers. Adana has taken 5.5 wickets, on the other hand, Muhammad Hasnain has taken the most 3 wickets for Pakistan, followed by Shadab Khan who managed to take 2 wickets at an average of 36.50.

**Interview ⁣with Sports Analyst, Sarah ⁢Khan, on Pakistan’s Recent Cricket Performance**

**Editor:** Welcome, Sarah. Thank you for joining us today to ‍discuss Pakistan’s recent cricketing struggles.

**Sarah Khan:** Thank you for having me.⁤

**Editor:** Pakistan’s national team has⁢ seen quite a turbulent​ period, ‌especially in the recent T20‌ series ⁤against Sri Lanka. What do you think ‌went wrong⁣ for the team?

**Sarah Khan:** It’s quite evident that there’s a ⁤lack of consistency and stability within the team. The⁣ recent T20 matches showcased a disjointed performance where the‍ players appeared not to gel together. The ⁤selectors ⁤opted ‌for an experimental lineup under head coach Misbah-ul-Haq, but that hasn’t paid off.

**Editor:** ‌Indeed, the choice of a younger‍ and less experienced squad ‍raised ⁣eyebrows.⁣ Do you think ‌this was a miscalculation?

**Sarah Khan:** Absolutely. While nurturing young talents is essential, there needs to be a balance. The decision to field an inexperienced squad ⁣against‍ a resilient‌ Sri Lankan team has backfired. The lack of‍ seasoned players to guide them ⁤in high-pressure situations ​turned out to be detrimental.

**Editor:** In the second match, Imad Wasim showed‍ some promise with his 47 runs, but the rest of the‌ lineup struggled. What does this say about the current state​ of the⁣ batting order?

**Sarah ​Khan:** It reflects a concerning trend. Apart from ⁣a few standout performances, there seems to ⁣be an overarching issue with scoring⁤ runs under pressure. If one player—like Wasim—stands out while the others falter, it indicates⁤ not just individual failures but ⁣a systemic ⁢issue ⁣within the batting ⁣lineup which needs addressing.

**Editor:** With this recent performance and ‌the overall record of⁤ only two wins in‌ the last twelve Test⁤ matches, what does the future hold for Pakistan cricket?

**Sarah ​Khan:** The‍ path‍ ahead is challenging. Unless there’s significant introspection ‌and⁤ a strategic overhaul in both selection and management, the team will continue to face hurdles. The spirits of ⁤cricket fans are low, but there’s hope—restructuring the team and instilling a winning mentality can help restore some much-needed faith.

**Editor:** Thank you, Sarah, ⁢for sharing your insights today. It‍ seems⁤ like there’s a lot of work⁣ ahead for the management and players alike.

**Sarah‌ Khan:**​ Thank you for​ having ‌me. Let’s hope for a brighter ⁢future for Pakistan cricket.
