Former India captain Sourav Ganguly has commented on the struggles of the Pakistan cricket team, attributing their difficulties to a “lack of talent in the country.” On the other hand former Indian captain also praised the legendary greats from the old Pakistan team.

Pakistan cricket in disarray

Pakistan cricket is facing a crisis after their disappointing home Test series loss to Bangladesh. The defeat has led to intense criticism from experts and fans across the country. Adding to the turmoil are reports suggesting there might be internal rifts among team members, although the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has firmly denied these allegations.

The broader concern following Pakistan’s 0-2 series defeat is that the team is failing to perform up to its potential. This has sparked a debate about the underlying issues affecting the team. Ganguly has weighed in on the situation, attributing the team’s struggles to a dearth of talent in the country, suggesting that a lack of quality players is at the heart of their poor performance.

Sourav Ganguly delivers stern reality check to PCB

With Pakistan cricket reaching a new low following their Test series loss to Bangladesh, Ganguly has expressed his concerns about the current state of the team. He believes that Pakistan is experiencing a deficiency of talent, a sharp contrast to the past when the team boasted legendary players such as Javed Miandad, Wasim Akram, and Waqar Younis. These players were instrumental in the team’s success and formed the backbone of a formidable squad. Ganguly’s comments highlight the significant gap between the current team’s performance and the high standards set during the era of these cricketing greats.

“I see a genuine dearth of talent in the country. Every time we think of Pakistan , we remember Miandad, Wasim, Waqar, Saeed Anwar, Mohammad Yousuf, and Younis Khan. That’s the memory of Pakistan for us, but that doesn’t win matches in the modern generation of cricket,” said Ganguly as quoted by Republic.

Ganguly further stated that he has been continuously observing the neighboring country since last year’s World Cup in India then during T20 World Cup in West Indies and now their home series against Bangladesh.

“Every generation has to produce outstanding players to win, and when I look at Pakistan in world cricket — I saw them in the West Indies World Cup, in India during the World Cup, and now after the Bangladesh series loss — there is a dearth of talent in that country. The people connected with the sport in Pakistan will have to look into it. I’m not saying this with disrespect. Pakistan of the old had some great cricketers, which I don’t see in this squad,” Ganguly added.

Their experience and leadership have been pivotal in the team’s recent success.

The recent Test series loss to Bangladesh marks a historic low, as it is the first time Pakistan have ever lost a Test series to Bangladesh.

The second Test between Pakistan and Bangladesh in Rawalpindi took a hilarious turn when Abrar Ahmed, the home team’s number 10 batter, staged a dramatic sprint to the crease. The incident involving Abrar was a rare moment of levity in an otherwise intense match. His frantic sprint to the crease, fuelled by a fear of time-out dismissal, showcased the pressure faced by batters in high-stakes cricket.

Abrar Ahmed makes a dash to the wicket

With his team in dire straits after the dismissal of Mohammad Ali, Abrar was all set to enter the fray. However, his eagerness to contribute almost landed him in an embarrassing situation. Abrar, clearly aware of the three-minute time limit for incoming batters, sprinted towards the crease in a desperate attempt to avoid a time-out dismissal. This comical scene left everyone in stitches, including the opposition’s star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan.

Adding to the amusement, Abrar even lost one of his gloves during his mad dash. He had to backtrack to retrieve it before finally maki??ng it to the crease.

The incident brought back memories of Shakib’s infamous tactic during the 2023 ODI World Cup. Back then, Shakib became the first cricketer in international history to time out his opponent, Sri Lanka‘s Angelo Matthews.

A time-out ?dismissal occurs when a batter takes more than three minutes to arrive at the crease after the previous batter is dismissed or retired.

Bangladesh on the brink of a historic win

Meanwhile, the serious business of the match continues. After securing a dominant 10-wicket victory in the first Test, Bangladesh are on the cusp of creating history. They require just 136 runs with all wickets intact on the ??final day to complete a clean sweep against Pakistan at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.

Pakista?n, on the ot??her hand, faces a monumental task. They need to take all ten Bangladeshi wickets to win the match and level the Test series.

Mir Hamza’s game-changing delivery

As Bangladesh resumed their innings at 42/0, they were in a solid position to chase down the 185-run target. However, Hamza’s breakthrough came at a crucial moment on the third ball of the 13th over. He delivered a well-placed good-length ball that nipped away from the batter. Zakir, who had been in fine form with 40 off 39 balls, attempted a drive off the front foot but misjudged the line. The ball beat him and knocked back his off-stump. This dismissal was pivotal for Pakistan, disrupting a promising opening partnership and giving them a crucial advantage in the match.

As Bangladesh began their chase, they reached 42 without loss in just 7 overs, with openers displaying positive intent.

In a critical day of the second Test match between Pakistan and Bangladesh, the spotlight was once again on the clash between Babar Azam and Nahid Rana. As the game entered its fourth day, Rana’s relentless pressure exposed Azam’s persistent technical issues, leading to a significant setback for Pakistan.

Babar Azam’s poor shot selection 

In the 19th over of the day, Rana delivered a crucial blow to Pakistan’s hopes of a comeback. With a ball that was fractionally short of a length and positioned outside off-stump, Rana drew Babar into an ill-advised shot. Babar, attempting a push away from his body, edged the ball straight to Shadman Islam at first slip. The wicket fell for just 11 runs off 18 balls, with Babar’s departure leaving Pakistan in a precario?us position.

The dismissal was a stark reminder of  Babar’s ongoing struggle against Rana’s bow??ling. Despite his renowned skills, Babar’s decision to play a loose shot rather than letting the delivery pass demonstrated a lapse in judgment at a crucial moment. His failure to capitalize on the opportunity added to the mounting? pressure on Pakistan’s batting lineup.

Mohammad Rizwan pr?ovided a glimmer of hope with his unbeaten 38 off 53 balls, including five boundaries. His resilience was a key factor in maintaining a slender lead.

Rana has been in superb form throughout the match, having already claimed three wickets, including that of Pakistan’s current captain, Shan Masood. Rana’s performance has been instrumental in putting Bangladesh in a strong position, with his relentless pace and accuracy proving challenging for the Pakistani batters.

With the series beyond their grasp, Pakistan’s focus now shifts to salvaging a draw to restore some pride. A victory? in the ongoing Test could balance the series and provide a much-needed boost to the team’s morale.
