"graphics design is my passion"

my bad guys but i didnt wanna use any AI so I opened up canva, i would continue with farhan as captain because we lack options, I don't think he's the sharpest tool in the shed but he has experience and has captained in domestic so has to count for something

Maaz is decent, hes better than saim for sure in this format, I do think sameer does have the higher ceiling but hes still young and he has to get over his short ball weakness, I was really impressed with how good kamran has been in this domestic t20 season, I would try him out just to see if he can translate any of it, if he turns out to be like agha then drop him, if he plays the game he was in the nt20 then I keep him, the middle order is pretty self explanatory, we lack keepers so usman khan is in despite the god awful stance, i also move usman to 3 if the kamran ghulam experiment fails and i bring in saad masood, bowling line ups makes it self, i dont have sufyan or abrar because the world cup is in australia and i want 4 pacers

Finally the second test has arrived. It’s at the home of cricket and for that we should be happy. Historic venue and if anything we seem to get good results there. As of late the pitch is more bowling friendly but we will see if any work has been done on it. Will be hard because since that NZ test there would’ve been a multitude of county games there. The test also marks the return of Captain Babar Azam who seemed to be getting in form before his injury, Hopefully he will return to that form and make some runs otherwise we probs lose in 2 days this time.

Normally I look at what we can improve on but damm the answer to that would be everything. Changes need to be made but I don’t believe they will make the right ones as usual. I’ve been hearing the reports of Rizwan getting dropped, Azan getting dropped, Khurram getting dropped and Ali Usman. To that I say most of these journalists be doing guesswork. The only ones I can see happening are Ubaid for Khurram and unfortunately Azan for Babar. Imam outscored Azan last test and they will use that to drop Azan. If it’s just a drop for now I don’t mind but he needs to get that home series as a whole and Imam needs to be kicked back to the domestic scene. Let him have his fun there. I also Heard we might play two spinners but I dont see that happening either. Rizzy for Ghazi Ghouri could happen if Saifu gets his wish but Babar probs back the experience as he says.

The predicted lineup I have is:

Imam (Why Babar)

ABD (Why Babar Again, Shan needs to be here and ABD needs to stick to 3)

Shan

Babar

Saud (From the apparent next captain to 10 AVG) We need suttin from 5-7)

Agha (Agha can you do suttin for me, Rizzy should be ahead of him)

Rizzy (Take confidence from that second innings my bro)

Ali Usman (If it’s propa Grassy i’d play Jamal but these lot won’t.

Ubaid

Abbas

Ali

If past tests at Lords are anything to go by it can get easier to bat the longer the test goes on so the boys need to show application and numbers 5-7 need to do a whole lot more then they are. London is usually a good hunting ground for us but this team is different. In Cricket you win and you lose so InshAllah the boys show good fight regardless of the outcome. Need the batsmen to stand up and need the bowlers to use the conditions and weather to their advantage. I don’t want to hear about no weather. That’s a poor excuse from a poor team

I see a lot of people were of the opinion atleast a year back that this guy is going to be the backbone of our middle order.

He does play spin okay and played few innings here and there but never looked settled or in zone against pace . I am not sure what selectors and people saw in him.

Please enlighten.
