The dismissal took place when Warriors’ spinner, Gudakesh Motie, bowled a clever delivery that spun sharply away from Greaves. Sensing Greaves advancing down the track, Motie pushed the ball wide outside off-stump, causin??g it to spin beyond the batter’s reach. Greaves, already well out of his crease?, was left stranded as Azam smoothly collected the ball and swiftly dislodged the bails. Greaves departed after scoring just 5 runs off 6 balls.

Former Pakistan wicketkeeper-batter Moin Khan has expressed deep concern and frustration over the treatment his son, Azam Khan, has received from the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and its former chairman, Ramiz Raja. Khan believes that Azam’s potential has been hindered by the board’s decisions and actions, leading to a decline in his confidence and performance.

Azam Khan: A rising star with a setback

Azam, a promising young cricketer, has faced a series of challenges in his career. His father, Moin, has been a vocal critic of the PCB’s handling of his son’s affairs. Moin believes that Azam’s talent and potential have been overshadowed by the board’s mismanagement.

The T20 World Cup controversy

One of the most contentious issues raised by Moin was the exclusion of Azam from the Pakistan squad for the 2022 T20 World Cup. Moin argued that Azam was a valuable asset to the team and his omission was a strategic blunder. He critici?zed Ramiz, the then-PCB chairman, for making such a decision.

“I watched the entire World Cup and the matches leading up to it, and it seemed like Azam was the number one choice for wicketkeeping and batting. Then suddenly, after just one match, the entire strategy was changed. Azam wasn’t given a chance to keep wickets after one match and was dropped after getting out on the very first ball. Any player can get out on the first ball, but here the tradition of developing players that used to exist is no longer there. Whether it’s the captain or the management, if they make such quick changes to players, how can we produce good players?,” said Moin as quoted by CricketPakistan.

A Pattern of Mistreatment?

Moin has alleged that Azam has been subjected to a pattern of mistreatment by the PCB. He claimed that his son has been unfairly dropped from important matches and tournaments, despite performing well. Khan believes that this treatment has had a negative impact on Azam’s morale and his ability to concentrate on his game.

Moin? has called on the PCB to treat Azam fairly and provide him with the necessary support to realize his full potential. He has urged the board to reconside??r its past decisions and give Azam a fresh start.

“In the 2022 World Cup, Azam was also selected for the team, but Ramiz Raja dropped him. At that time, if the chief selector had made a wrong selection, he should have been removed, but they didn’t have the courage, and as a result, they demoralized a young player. In this World Cup as well, you can see how he was played. I’m not saying that all the blame lies with the team management and the captain; Azam has his own shortcomings too. He needs to make himself physically and mentally stronger, follow the fitness routines of other sportsmen. For the past month or so, I’ve noticed he’s been working hard to improve his fitness with his trainer Shehzar Mohammad, even taking him along to the Caribbean League. I hope Azam has learned a lot from this experience,” he added.

A plea for transparency

Moin has also emphasized the importance of transparency in the selection process for the national team. H??e believes that the PCB s?hould be more open about its decision-making and provide clear explanations for its choices.

As the controversy surrounding Azam’s treatment continues, it remains to be seen how the PCB will respond to Moin’s allegations. The future of the young cricketer hangs in the balance, and the outcome of this dispute will have significant implications for Pakistan cricket.

Guyana Amazon Warriors showcased an outstanding all-round performance to secure a commanding six-wicket win over St Lucia Kings in Match 10 of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2024. The match, held at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in Gros Islet, St Lucia, saw the Warriors completely out?play the Kings in both batting and bowling.

St Lucia Kings falter with the bat

The Kings, after being put into bat, struggled to get going and were bundled out for a meager 100 runs in just 14.3 overs. Matthew Forde was the lone bright spot, scoring 31 runs off 21 balls with two sixes and three boundaries. However, the rest of the batting order failed to provide any resistance, crumbling under the pressure of Warriors’ disciplined bowling attack.

Imran Tahir and Gudakesh Motie were the chief destroyers for Guyana, each claiming three wickets. Their crafty spin bowling kept the St Lucia batters in check, and with Keemo Paul chipping in with two vital wickets, the Kings found themselves unable t??o build any meaningful partnerships, ultimately folding for a paltry total.

Azam Khan’s spectacular catch dismisses Johnson Charles

One of the pivotal moments of the match was Pakistan’s Azam Khan taking a sensational catch to dismiss the dangerous Johnson Charles. The incident occurred during the sixth over of the St Lucia innings. Paul, who had been bowling with precision, delivered a full-length ball outside off stump. Charles, attempting to drive through the off side, ended up playing away from his body, producing a faint edge. Azam, stationed behind the stumps, displayed exceptional agility and reflexes, diving sharply to his right to complete a stunning catch. This catch not only removed a key player but also set the tone for the rest of the innings, as Warriors’ batting line-up quickly unraveled.

Guyana Amazon Warrior’s powerful response with the bat

Chasing a modest target, the Warriors made quick work of the Kings’ bowling attack. Rahmanullah Gurbaz led the charge with a blistering knock of 47 runs off just 19 balls, hammering seven sixes in a show of raw power. Tim Robinson als??o contributed with a solid 33 off 20 balls, ensuring that Guya??na reached the target with 10 overs to spare.

Despite the overall disappointing performance, Noor Ahmad was a standout for St Lucia Kings, delivering an impressive spell of bowling. He picked up 3 wickets for just 22 runs, putting in a lone effort to try and stem the flow of runs. Alzarri Joseph also managed to take a wicket, but their efforts were not enough to stop Guyana’s relentless march ??to victory.

Pakistan dropped wicketkeeper-batter Azam Khan for their high-stakes Group A match of the T20 World Cup 2024 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Sunday (June 9). The toss was delayed by almost half an hour because of slight rain, with overcast and windy conditions prevailing. Sunday’s match is taking on the same pitch that hosted the Netherlands-South Africa clash on Saturday, wh?ich t??he Proteas won by four wickets.

The reason behind Azam Khan’s absence

Azam was replaced by all-rounder Imad Wasim, who had missed the opening match against the United States of America (USA) due to a side strain. The much-anticipated encounter faced a delayed start due to rain, but Pakistan captain Babar Azam won the toss and opted to field. For Khan, Babar said he has been rested for this match: “Azam Khan is resting.”

Reflecting on the decision to bowl first, Babar explained, “We will bowl first because of the weather and moisture in the pitch. The conditions suit us, we have four fast bowlers. We will try to use it to our best. Past is past, we are looking forward to today’s match, we are ready and will give our 100%. Always a big game, our confidence is always high for India vs Pakistan matches.”

The match extended to a Super Over, where the hosts USA clinched a stunning victory, delivering a surprising defeat to Pakistan. Alongside the thrilling game, an incident featuring Azam Khan caught significant attention.

Azam Khan’s first-ball dismissal

After consulting with captain Babar Azam at the other end, Azam opted for the DRS. However, the replays confirmed the ball was heading stra?igh??t to the stumps.

Confrontation with fans

As he walked back to the pavilion, Azam appeared visibly upset and starred at a spectator in the stands. Although the exact reason for his anger remains unclear, it seemed some fans attempted to moc?k and body shame him.

England secured a commanding victory over Pakistan in the 4th T20I at Kennington Oval in London.

Mark Wood’s vicious bouncer dismisses Azam Khan

In his first T20 appearance since the Indian Premier League (IPL), Wood showcased his blistering pace, consistently hitting 96mph in his opening overs. The highlight of his spell came when he dismissed Pakistan’s wicket-keeper batter Azam Khan with a vicious bouncer. Azam, who walked in after Shadab Khan‘s departure in the 10th over with Pakistan at 84/4, struggled to cope with Wood’s pace.

Facing Wood’s second delivery of the over, Azam got into an uncomfortable position against a searing short ball. The ball, clocked at 96mph, squared him up, hitting his glove before being safely caught by England wicket-keeper Jos Buttler. Azam departed for a five-bal??l duck, ??unable to score any runs off the fearsome delivery.

Babar Azam urges middle-order improvement after the loss

Pakistan skipper Babar Azam reflected on Pakistan’s performance in the 4th T20I against England, highlighting that they started strong in the first six overs but lost momentum due to losing wickets. He emphasized the need for the middle-order to improve and deliver crucial overs both in the middle and towards the end of the innings.

Babar acknowledged the effectiveness of England’s bowling and expressed hope that such a performance wouldn’t be repeated in the upcoming World Cup. He also mentioned that injuries led to some changes in the lineup but noted that Pakistan showed glimpses of good cricket, especially during the powerplay.

“First six overs, we played very well. After that, the momentum shifted as wickets fell. Our middle-order needs to step up. You need 2-3 good overs in the middle and in the death as well. England’s bowling was very good. Hopefully we don’t do this in the World Cup. We made a couple of changes due to the injuries. Our powerplay was good. We have played good cricket in patches,” said Babar in the post-match presentation.
