Another bombshell on Pakistan cricket! Former cricketer supports Babar Azam and says...

Former Pakistan international Tanveer Ahmed clarifies the comments he previously made about young cricketers of Pakistan. He again applauded for two star batters of the nation—Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan.

Tanveer suggested that the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) should consider bringing these two players back into the T20I squad. Ahmed's comments sparked controversies before and projected the idea that he stood against the upcoming talents.

The former fast bowler clearly denied this type of rumor and said that he always supports the young talents, but for him, performance and the match results are the most important things. According to him, if the team formed with young cricketers and performed well even against the stronger teams, then he would never shout for Babar and Rizwan's inclusion into the team.

Ahmed asked Agha's team Pakistan to perform well against big teams first

"People take my words in the wrong direction, claiming that I don't support young stars because of Babar and Rizwan, but that's not the case at all. I want these young players to perform as they did against Bangladesh and play the same way against all other teams. Salman Ali Agha is saying that we will now play this brand of cricket, and I want him to play that cricket against teams like New Zealand, England, South Africa, and India in ICC tournaments. Once you play good cricket against these teams, then I'll believe that Pakistan has the talent," he explained his thoughts. 

Tanveer further added, "If the performance against good teams is as promised, and if what Mike Hesson and Salman Agha say is true—that they will build a new team—then I will say, yes, this is the team, and now Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan are no longer needed."
