At Grace Road in Leicester, Pakistan Champions played outstanding cricket to beat Australia Champions by 10 wickets in Match 14 of the World Championship of Legends (WCL) 2025. After choosing to bowl first, Pakistan bowled out Australia for just 74 runs in 11.5 overs, thanks to a magical spell from Saeed Ajmal. In reply, Pakistan chased down the target in only 7.5 overs without losing a single wicket, making it one of the most one-sided wins of the tournament. With this win, Pakistan moved to the top of the points table.

Australia Champions had a tough day at the office. They were all out for just 74 runs and couldn’t handle Pakistan’s strong bowling attack. Ben Dunk was the only bright spot with 26 runs off 14 balls. The rest of the batters, including Callum Ferguson (10) and Shaun Marsh (7), couldn’t stay long at the crease. Saeed Ajmal was the star for Pakistan, taking 6 wickets for just 16 runs in 3.5 overs. He completely confused the Australian batters. Imad Wasim took 2 wickets, and Sohail Tanvir got 1, making it a strong bowling effort.

Pakistan Champions came out to bat with confidence and finished the chase in just 7.5 overs. Sharjeel Khan scored 32* from 23 balls, while Sohaib Maqsood stayed not out on 28 from 26 balls. Australia’s bowlers had a bad day, especially John Hastings, who bowled 11 wides in one over. In total, Australia gave away 14 extra runs. It was a one-sided match where Pakistan showed total control and walked away with an easy 10-wicket win, putting them on top of the WCL 2025 points table.

Pakistan cricket has been struggling in recent years, with constant changes in Captaincy, coaches, and selectors, but things haven’t improved or changed. These changes have hurt many players, including Babar Azam, one of Pakistan’s most talented cricketers. His form has dropped, and he has lost the captaincy twice. Recently, his performance in the Champions Trophy led to criticism from former players.

Former Pakistan spinner Saeed Ajmal has backed up for Babar Azam after he faced criticism from ex-cricketers. Speaking to Sportstar, he said, "You have only one star player. If you keep bringing him down, how will Pakistan cricket move forward? Former players should stop with the negativity."

Ajmal pointed out that every cricketer goes through tough times. "Bad form is a part of the game. You can't always play the same way. Even Sachin Tendulkar didn’t score a hundred in every match." After Pakistan's disappointing performance in the Champions Trophy, the PCB board made quick changes. Mohammad Rizwan was removed as T20I captain, and both he and Babar Azam were dropped from the team.

Ajmal disagreed with the decision, saying, "Dropping them like this was unfair. It's not like they were the only ones struggling. The selectors should have talked to Babar about taking a break so he could come back stronger."

"Babar and Rizwan are great players. Their records are as good as anyone’s the only difference is that they don’t play very aggressively, but they still score runs. Now, suddenly, people think you have to be aggressive to succeed in international cricket."

"Come on, what aggression are we even talking about? If they are proven match-winners, they don’t need to change their style. Even legends like Virat Kohli take their time to settle before attacking that’s just how he plays."
