“Saim is an incredibly talented player. The way he changes the game in the first six overs is commendable. He’s struggling but I feel he just needs one innings to bounce back,” stated Babar.

“Sometimes you need to give some extra time to special talents like him. Hopefully, he will find his rhythm and do well in the future.”

With consistent opportunities but modest returns, Saim Ayub has faced criticism lately, having scored 219 runs in 15 innings at an average of 14.60 and a strike rate of 125.86.

“See, you have to give margin. Playing for Pakistan comes with its own pressures. I know that Usman has left so many things, so all of that would be in the back of his mind,” Babar remarked.

“But he has made every effort. Look, as a player, whenever you make a debut, you try to stabilize your innings, but he has shown the intent, which was also required from him. Performing is not in anyone’s control. On the day that it is your day, you will perform.”

During the series, Usman Khan batted in four innings, managing 59 runs at a strike rate of 122.91.

The victory against New Zealand allowed Pakistan to level the five-match Twenty20 International series in Lahore, providing a glimmer of hope and renewed determination as they move forward.

Pakistan’s Middle-Order Woes: A Concern Ahead of T20 World Cup

pakistan-middle-order-concerns-t20-world-cup

Pakistan cricket team finds itself under intense scrutiny following their lackluster performance against a depleted New Zealand side in the ongoing T20I series, especially by their middle-order batters.

With New Zealand leading the series 2-1, Pakistan’s hopes of clinching victory now seem dashed, as even a win in the final match would only level the series.

Pakistan’s scoring rate in the middle overs of T20I cricket is particularly concerning, which has raised alarm bells among fans, especially with the 2024 World Cup looming just over a month away.

Despite boasting players like Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam, both among the fastest to reach 3,000 runs in T20I cricket (in terms of innings), Pakistan has struggled to adopt an aggressive approach.

Rizwan and Babar, in particular, have faced criticism for their slow batting in the middle overs, often leaving too much for the lower-order batsmen to achieve. This trend has solidified with statistical evidence, prompting growing concern among fans.

babar-azam-against-management-for-rizwan-batting-position

Pakistan’s middle-order batting has long been a subject of scrutiny, and recent performances have only exacerbated the issue. Their scoring rate in overs 7-15 stands at a meagre 7.30, placing them only above Afghanistan in this aspect.

Scoring rate T20Is during overs 7-15

  • 9.75 — Australia
  • 9.35 — South Africa
  • 8.97 — India
  • 8.56 — West Indies
  • 8.22 — Sri Lanka
  • 8.20 — England
  • 8.07 — New Zealand
  • 7.46 — Ireland
  • 7.36 — Bangladesh
  • 7.30 — Pakistan
  • 7.01 — Afghanistan

pakistan-middle-order-concerns-t20-world-cup

Comparatively, teams like Australia, South Africa, and India boast significantly higher scoring rates during the middle overs, highlighting the gap in Pakistan’s approach.

As the 2024 T20 World Cup draws near, these concerns become even more pronounced for Pakistan, who finished as runners-up in the last edition.

While they have a pool of talented players in the middle and lower-middle order, including Rizwan, Fakhar Zaman, Iftikhar Ahmed, Shadab Khan, Imad Wasim, and Usman Khan, the team management must rethink their strategy.

It is imperative that every batter is played in their rightful position to extract optimal performance. Failure to address these issues could spell another disappointment for the nation on the global stage.

Hafeez Challenges PCB’s Choice for Foreign Coaches: Alleges Nepotism

hafeez-criticizes-pcb-for-foreign-coaches

Former Pakistan captain Mohammad Hafeez has raised eyebrows over the selection of foreign coaches for the national men’s cricket team, calling it into question during an interview with a local news channel.

Hafeez, who recently served as the team’s director for a brief stint, expressed his reservations, arguing that it’s unfair to accuse local coaches of nepotism.

Reflecting on his own experience, he highlighted his qualifications as a level-one coach and emphasized the importance of considering the vast experience gained from international cricket.

“The process of my removal as director of cricket was unfortunate. I am a qualified level-one coach. Coaching courses are an education but not complete eligibility to become a coach. The experience gained from international cricket is equally valuable,” Hafeez asserted.

During his tenure as Director, Pakistan endured disappointing series losses in Australia and New Zealand, leading to Hafeez’s subsequent removal from the role.

Responding to allegations made by former PCB chairman Najam Sethi regarding nepotism among local coaches, Hafeez expressed disappointment. He refuted the claims and defending the integrity of Pakistani cricket legends.

“I strongly disagree with the statements made by the former PCB chairman. It is unjust to tarnish the reputation of esteemed former players. Pakistan has got legends of cricket who are admired by the rest of the world,” Hafeez remarked.

“This is a slavish mindset of PCB that only a foreign coach should be appointed, overlooking the potential and capabilities of local talent. There’s no evidence to suggest that local coaches engage in nepotism or favouritism.”

As the PCB prepares to announce the coaching staff for the Pakistan men’s team, reports suggest that former South African batter Gary Kirsten and ex-Australian pacer Jason Gillespie are set to assume roles as white-ball and red-ball head coaches, respectively.

Meanwhile, Pakistan finds itself trailing 2-1 in the ongoing five-match T20I series against New Zealand, following a defeat in the fourth T20I.

Pakistan head coach Azhar Mahmood has defended young batter Usman Khan despite failures following the national team’s narrow defeat against New Zealand in the fourth T20I of the series.

Reflecting on the match, Mahmood addressed areas of concern after Pakistan fell short by just four runs in their chase against New Zealand.

Despite a valiant effort by all-rounder Imad Wasim in the final over, Pakistan couldn’t overhaul the target set by the visitors, finishing on 174/8 in pursuit of New Zealand’s 178/7.

The defeat marked Pakistan’s second loss in the five-match T20I series, effectively dashing their hopes of clinching the series victory even with a win in the final match.

Speaking after the game, Mahmood came to Usman Khan’s defence, highlighting the batter’s intent despite limited success in the series so far.

azhar-mahmood-backs-usman-khan-despite-failures

Despite managing only 28 runs in three innings, Khan showcased promising signs, particularly in terms of intent, according to Mahmood.

“We always emphasize the importance of showing intent. Usman Khan demonstrated that today, displaying some impressive strokes. Although he didn’t achieve the desired results, his intent was commendable,” Mahmood remarked.

Mahmood acknowledged Pakistan’s superiority in various facets of the game compared to New Zealand but identified certain areas for improvement moving forward.

“There were a few positives for us as we scored more boundaries than New Zealand. We also bowled more dot balls but they just took more doubles than us. These are areas of concern for us and we’re constantly working on it,” Mahmood noted.

azhar-mahmood-backs-usman-khan-despite-failures

Looking ahead to the T20 World Cup scheduled in the West Indies and the USA from June 1, Mahmood expressed confidence in Pakistan’s squad composition, affirming that they have a clear idea of their best playing XI.

Despite facing a few setbacks due to injuries, Mahmood concluded on a positive note, stating that Pakistan’s squad is well-equipped for the upcoming tournament.

“As we finalize our preparations for the World Cup, we’re ensuring that we have every base covered. While injuries have posed some challenges, we’re optimistic about the depth and versatility of our squad,” Mahmood concluded.

Asim Azhar Sudden Disappearance From Instagram Shocks Everyone

Asim Azhar Instagram

It’s a great thing to go on a social media purge every now and then. Asim Azhar, a renowned Pakistani singer, has removed all content from his account and has unfollowed everyone. Could this indicate a reinvention of the star? release of a new album? or a sign he’s going through something?

Asim Azhar Account

After making his account match one of a ghost, with no profile photo left either, he posted a story. On a black background he wrote, “To find yourself, you must lose yourself.” As if Asim bidding farewell to Instagram was not shady enough, the statement shared shortly after has made fans more curious. Everyone is anticipating what is next in store for him, or any hints for what he’s up to.

If what he posted indicates something, why is Asim on a journey to find himself? What could have pushed him to do this? And if he believes he must lose himself, then why? and also, how?

Asim Azhar and Merub Ali

A lot of fans are speculating that this has something to do with Asim Azhar’s engagement with Merub back in 2022. Merub is a rising Pakistani actress and has recently joined the television industry. The two of them announced their engagement with lively photographs. Since then, they have shared photos with each other from time to time, mostly at public events.

The two are truly a match made in heaven, and according to Merub, their engagement was destined to happen. Which is why Asim’s behavior is that much more concerning. By any chance, fans are wondering, has something happened between the two, and if so when will we get the news?

For now, we wish the Jo Tu Na Mila singer good health and prosperity. It’s important to understand that stars have a life of their own, aside from their career, in which they struggle and need their space.

This commitment to quality, innovation, and design has been instrumental in TECNO’s success and popularity among consumers in Pakistan

Once again, the company sets a new standard with the latest CAMON 30 series. Beyond the eye-catching design and ultra-smart specs, they have redefined camera technology by collaborating with SONY, the biggest industry leader in imaging technology. Yes, you heard it right!

It enables groundbreaking features, including Industry-First 4K 30fps Full-scene AI-NR HDR Video, overcoming traditional limitations in computing power to achieve high dynamic range, even in the most challenging lighting conditions. This technological advancement significantly expands the range of light and dark intensities captured in a single image, resulting in more accurate and detailed imaging. Additionally, the chip enables Dual Chips 4K Ultra-night Vision, utilizing a deep learning noise reduction algorithm to significantly reduce video noise, ensuring crystal-clear video. Moreover, it facilitates Dual Chips 4K Portrait Video, eradicating color noise by internally employing a 20-bit color range, allowing supremely realistic color saturation in portrait videos.

Saba Faisal’s Views on Sons Bringing ‘Security’ Spark Controversy

Saba Faisal

In recent news, Saba Faisal is currently being called out for her ignorant and misogynistic statement regarding sons. After the actress Saba mentioned that only sons bring you a sense of security, regardless of their presence, women in the industry have spoken against it. Starting with Hira Khan, a fellow actress, who was quick to share her disapproval on social media. 

Saba Faisal recently shared her sister’s narrative. Her younger sister had always enjoyed not having a son, given the difficulty of raising boys. Later, her husband passed away, and her daughters moved abroad for education. Having an empty nest, Saba’s sister struggled and at one point called Saba crying and shared how she felt alone and unprotected.

Given this, Saba said, “She was all alone, why? Because only sons bring you a sense of protection even when they are not physically there”.

Drama and Backlash Faced By Saba Faisal

Hira Khan was quick to condemn her statement. She took it to Instagram and stated, ” Stunned by the audacity and stupidity.”

Sadia Faisal, Saba’s daughter, jumped to her mother’s defense. She reshared what Hira Khan had to say, and added, “Everyone has a right to speak whatever he/she wants! And I’m stunned by your words! Have some respect for senior artists in your own industry. Thank you.”

Consequently, things quickly escalated and Hira Khan clapped back. She brought forward a prominent issue. “In a country where newborn babies are killed just because they aren’t boys, where women are already considered a burden, it’s not okay for someone as big as Saba Ji to come and say things like these,” she maintained. She then also added that her opinions come from a place of respect.

To clear the air, Sadia added, “You’re taking it out of context. What she meant had nothing to do with whatever you said! Peace please.”

To conclude the online feud, Saba herself weighed into this and said to Hira, “It takes a lifetime experience to understand this.”

“Our primary objective in this series is to explore different combinations and provide ample opportunities to players,” Babar explained.

“And if we switch over any player to a different spot, we will do it by discussing with him. Everything is happening through proper understanding and communication. Every player is being taken into confidence and our motive is to raise the country’s performance graph.”

In the face of criticism and scrutiny, Babar remained resolute in his commitment to prioritizing the team’s interests above all else. “Criticism doesn’t deter our focus. Our decisions are guided by what benefits the team,” he affirmed.

“Injuries are part of the game but we try to look after every player. A camp always helps you with fitness and mental health. It never happened to me or any other that we did not focus on fitness.

“We are trying to give opportunities to the available 15 to 16 players so that they could prove themselves in different conditions and get ready for the task.”

With the series finely poised, Pakistan’s unwavering unity and strategic approach bode well for their quest to clinch victory against New Zealand in the upcoming encounter.

As Babar and his men gear up for the challenge, they remain steadfast in their pursuit of excellence on the cricketing stage.

Is Sapphire Facing Criticism Over Its Recent Sale?

Sapphire

The number one selling brand, Sapphire, is currently being accused of lying to its customers. The store announced on Facebook, a sale with up to 50 % off, which will soon end. The post dated 28th April and also shared the precise time of 04:00 pm for when the sale would hit their website.

Sapphire’s sales have a history of utmost anticipation. From endless queues to overcrowded stores that mostly end in some sort of snatching, from women fighting over the last piece of their favorite article to the sales staff’s exhaustion and confusion, no one does it like Sapphire.

It seems they’ve outdone themselves this time around. Because shortly after they declared HALF OFF, the website just didn’t work. You must be thinking why? Well as of now many support the theory that this was an elaborate scheme pulled off by the brand.

Customers’ Response to the Sapphire ‘Scam’

Consequently, and very obviously enough, everyone is upset. Most shared that the website’s cart wasn’t working. Everything they selected seemed to just not go into the cart, causing most of their selected items to just sell out. No matter how many times customers reloaded the website, or switched devices, the matter remained. Moreover, it was the same case for everyone. Making it look like an innate issue with the website itself. Beyond that, the prices didn’t drop much, let alone 50%. Causing us to wonder, was there truly a sale to begin with?

As a response, unfortunately, the brand hasn’t done much. The most we saw were apologetic replies to the comments, suggesting the issue is now fixed and there are plenty of articles left for customers to buy.

Have you ever experienced this by brands? Let us know in the comments below.
