Pakistan have made a set of touch calls ahead of their next two clashes against England, as they have dared to drop the likes of veteran batter Babar Azam and pace duo Shaheen Afridi and Naseem Shah. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/10/Pak-drop-big-3.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-148490" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Pakistan drop their 3-big stars ahead of 2nd and 3rd Test against England (Image: CricTracker)</figcaption></figure>



 The likes of uncapped and talented batter <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamran_Ghulam">Kamran Ghulam </a>have been called up to feature for Pakistan and might be seen tackling the middle order, replacing the great Babar Azam. The other major name who have been replaced from the side includes Haseebullah, who replaced the likes of veteran wicketkeeper and Champions Trophy-winning captain, Sarfaraz Ahmed. Spinner Mehran Mumtaz has also been called up for a backup option other than Abrar Ahmed, who went wicketless for Pakistan in the first Test, while seasoned spinners Sajid Khan and Noman Ali have also been added to the squad as they replaced the likes of the two quicks from the side.

 Though Babar?s drop in form has been documented well, the dip in form for Shaheen has also been quite eminent, since he has averaged over 45 in red-ball cricket since his return to test cricket after his injury state. Naseem was the other pacer who followed with a bad form as well, while Naseem remained Pakistan?s specialist red-ball bowler for years without having played white-ball cricket. After Naseem too returned from his injury this April, he could not assess his pace and accuracy following his surgery.

The Pakistan Cricket Board has finally announced their squad for the upcoming test match fixtures to be held against the touring English side, who crushed them in a disastrous defeat. Pakistan Squad for 2nd and 3rd Test: Shan Masood (captain), Saud Shakeel (vice captain), Aamer Jamal, Mohammad Ali, Mohammad Huraira, Mohammad Rizwan (wicketkeeper), Abdullah Shafique, Haseebullah (wicketkeeper), Kamran Ghulam, Mehran Mumtaz, Mir Hamza, Noman Ali, Saim Ayub, Sajid Khan, Salman Ali Agha, and Zahid Mehmood.

Openers: Abdullah Shafique and Saim Ayub Pakistan's most highly recognized opening pair is Shafique and Ayub, of which the former was seen as a centurion in the first innings of the Pakistan inning. Middle-order batters: Shan Masood [C], Kamran Ghulam, Saud Shakeel, Mohammad Rizwan The Pakistan skipper started off well in the first innings against England, as the Multan track always seems to be a healthy track for batters. The legendary Babar Azam might be replaced by the debutant Kamran Ghulam. Among the Pakistan team, the two most set batters who seem to be in touch, Saud Shakeel and Rizwan, are expected to be possibly placed into the side. All-rounders and bowlers: Salman Ali Agha, Mir Hamza, Aamer Jamal, Abrar Ahmed, and Noman Ali The in-form Salman Ali Agha, who scored stunning innings against Bangladesh, also went on to score a hundred in the first inning of the game while also backing his innings with another half-century. Also, Naseem Shah and Shaheen Afridi will be replaced by a duo of spin and pace, as the most likely players to be brought into the squad are Hamza and Noman Ali.

ENG vs PAK: The English are touring Pakistan for a three-match Test series as they look to prove their dominance as one of the greatest red-ball teams in the history of the game. The first test played at Multan went largely in favour of the English. Joe Root and Harry Brook, the English batters, broke the backs of Pakistan bowlers as they broke several records and rewrote the record books with intent. Brook scored his maiden triple hundred, while Root also portrayed excellence in scoring his highest-ever individual score. Now, Pakistan have made some huge changes to their squad for the next two test matches as well, which will be played in Multan and Rawalpindi, the two most high-average scoring grounds in the nation.

This marked a significant change in the perspective of Pakistan?s form in Test cricket; the almost quick-dependent side went on to go with 4 players for a spin in the squad. They have named the two new inclusions of Zahid Mehmood, Noman Ali, and Sajid Khan alongside Salman Ali Agha as all these would bowl, leg-spin, slow-left-arm, and off-spin, respectively. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamran_Ghulam">Kamran Ghulam</a> replaces the veteran Pakistan cricketer Babar Azam in the side as he makes his debut in international test cricket.

Pakistan vs England 2nd Test 2024: Pakistan announce their playing XI for the 2nd test-match vs England, Kamran Ghulam in, Babar Azam out: In what proves to be a significant development, Pakistan?s Men's National Cricket Team have announced their Playing XI for the 2nd Test-Match versus England. Captained by Shan Masood, the Shaheens will be squaring off against the Three Lions in a do-or-die contest at the Cricket Stadium of Multan.



As anticipated, 29-year-old batter Kamran Ghulan has replaced experienced batsman Babar Azam at number-four in the playing XI of the Green Shirts. Moreover, Pakistan have also opted to go with four spinners, including spin-bowling All-Rounder Salman Ali Agha, for this forthcoming Test-Match.



This move gives a solid indication that the surface for the 2nd-test in Multan will be a spin-friendly one and will provide a lot of assistance to the slower bowlers.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Babar Azam replaced by Kamran Ghulam in the Playing XI</h2>



In a bold-move, the team-management of Pakistan have taken the tough decision of dropping out-of-form batter Babar Azam from the squad for the last two-encounters of the three-match Test-Series.



The home side have made significant changes to their squad, bringing in several new-faces in hopes of turning around their fortunes on home-soil.



A highly talented middle-order batsman, Ghulam has scored tons of runs at the First-Class Cricket level, amassing a total of 4,377 runs, including 20 fifties and 16 centuries at an outstanding average of 49.17. The 29-year-old is in really good form with the bat and would be looking to create an instant impact on his debut in the 2nd-test versus England.



Left handed opening batter Saim Ayub, who didn't have a good outing with the bat in the 1st-test match, has retained his spot in the Starting XI alongside Abdullah Shafique. The latter scored a terrific hundred in the first inning of the previous contest and he would be looking to play an important role with the bat again for his team.



Captain Shan Masood will be occupying the number three position in the batting-order. The Southpaw had an amazing 1st Test-Match having played an outstanding knock of 151 runs in the first inning. He would once again to be looking to take the responsibility with the bat as the captain and help Pakistan level the series versus England.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Pakistan vs England 2nd Test 2024: Pakistan's Starting XI versus England</h2>

Pakistan vs England 2nd Test 2024: Pakistan announce their playing XI for the 2nd test-match vs England, Kamran Ghulam in, Babar Azam out

Babar Azam?s drop from the Pakistan national side has made a huge stir in international cricket. Defending their daring step, Pakistan's head coach clarified that Babar has only been rested and not dropped, while also declaring him as their no. 1 batter.



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
https://twitter.com/mufaddal_vohra/status/1845807453356597673
</div></figure>



 <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azhar_Ali">Azhar Ali</a>?s introduction as the Pakistan selector was not in the best way planned, as his first task to inform Babar about being dropped seemed controversial as a selector. Also, one of the strongest performers in the Pakistan domestic circle, Kamran Ghulam, was also named the best domestic player of the year by the PCB. However, this seemed one of the biggest course-changing decisions in the history of Pakistan cricket. Also, Kamran Ghulam has been named into the playing 11 after being immediately placed into the squad following the exit of veteran batter Babar Azam. 



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Fakhar Zaman?s dig on PCB over the decision to bench Babar Azam</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/10/Fakhar-takes-a-dig-on-PCB-1024x576.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-148558" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Fakhar Zaman issued show cause over taking a dig on PCB over benching PCB (Image Credit: ProBatsman) </figcaption></figure>



Another veteran and exciting Pakistani cricketer of white ball cricket, Fakhar Zaman, has played several splendid match-winning matches for the Pakistan team. He, with a post on his X handle, questioned the PCB selection committee's decision to bench a player of Babar?s calibre. Zaman also drew a comparison of the Pakistani legendary cricketer with Indian cricket icon Virat Kohli, as the latter also faced a tough phase in his career between the years 2020?23. He also sparked how Babar Azam, arguably their best batter, is dropped from the team owing to weak form, then it creates a stir of fear and instils a lack of confidence among other players.

 ?Azhar made it clear to Babar that he remained an integral part of Pakistan cricket?s future set-up and planning,? the source informed. As one of the Pakistani selectors' panel members, Aqib, mentioned, the break from international cricket would help them to regain their fitness as well as composure, hence making them ensured for future challenges.

England batter Ben Duckett is enjoying his time in India as the two teams lock horns with each other in the five-match T20I series. The series has already been won by India after they won the fourth game of the series in Pune. 
The final game of the series will be played on Sunday (2nd February) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The  England team will be keen to win the match and enter into the ODI series on a high by ending the series with a margin of 3-2. 
One of the key performers for England in the ongoing tour has been Ben Duckett. The opening batter, after failing to score runs in the first two games, came up with the magical efforts in the third and fourth match. He looked in solid touch and troubled the Indian bowlers. 
Ben Duckett slammed a vital half-century in the third game and followed it up with a 39-run knock in the 4th IND vs ENG T20I. The batter has been at his aggressive best while opening the innings and would be keen to carry on the same form in the last match. 
His form will be crucial for England in the last game. He, along with Jos Buttler, has looked like the settled batter in the series for visitors. The opening batter would want to cash on the form and help his team make a strong comeback in the series. 
Ben Duckett, since the last year, has been in red-hot form and has been consistently scoring runs for England in all three formats. The opening batting will be crucial for his team in ODIs as well followed by the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. 
Ahead of the fifth IND vs ENG T20I match, Ben Duckett was seen playing street cricket in Mumbai. In the video that has gone viral on the internet, the opening batter can be seen hitting a six in a shadow batting effort on the footpath.

The T20I series between India and England is all set to reach a conclusion. The fifth game of the five-match series, which will be a dead rubber between the teams, is scheduled to take place on Sunday (2nd February) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. 
India has already won the five-match T20I series against England. They won the fourth game of the series by 15 runs and took an unassailable lead of 3-1 in the series. They now would be keen to win the last game as well and seal the five-match series by the margin of 4-1. 
One of the heroes for India during the fourth IND vs ENG T20I series was Shivam Dube. The all-rounder was drafted into the team as a replacement for Nitish Kumar Reddy and then got the opportunity to play in the 4th game, which took place at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. 
On his comeback game for India, Shivam Dube set the stage on fire and made sure that bails the team out of trouble. He came to bat when India was under massive pressure and lost four quick wickets. The Southpaw soaked in all the pressure and took a team to the big total. 
Shivam Dube slammed a terrific half-century and, in particular, targeted Adil Rashid. The lanky batter was all over the opposition and hit the bowlers all around the park. He played an innings of 53 runs and helped India post a total of 181 runs, which at one moment seemed impossible. 
<h2>Shivam Dube faced concussion duirng first IND vs ENG T20I, likely to miss 5th game</h2>
During his innings, Shivam Dube was also at the receiving end of a nasty blow. He was hit on the head during the last over, after which he faced a concussion and then was replaced by Harshit Rana, who made his debut for the team and picked three wickets to help the team win. 
With Shivam Dube facing a concussion, there is a lot of speculation about whether the all-rounder will be fit for the next game or not. However, as per the reports in the Times of India, he will be missing the next match, which will be a dead rubber. 
The reports added that if Shivam Dube will be unavailable then Ramandeep Singh is expected to replace him in the team. The Punjab all-rounder made his debut for India in the T20I series against South Africa and looked decent with the bat and ball.

IND vs ENG 4th T20I: In a match that swung like a pendulum, both teams fought tooth and nail in a contest filled with twists and turns. India have defeated England in the 4th T20I by 15 runs and won the 17th T20I series in a row. 
India’s early collapse left them gasping for breath, but a remarkable fightback brought them back into the game, thanks to two key players. England, chasing a challenging target, seemed to be in control until a sudden shift changed the course of the match. With wickets falling in clusters, the momentum shifted again and again. As the final overs approached, it was anyone’s game. 
<h2>IND vs ENG 4th T20I Match Summary</h2>
For the first time in the series, Jos Buttler made the right call at the toss and opted to bowl first after winning the flip of the coin. They had two changes - Mahmood for Wood, and Bethell for Smith. Meanwhile, for India, Rinku Singh was fit and available so there were going to be some changes to the squad. Arshdeep came in place of Shami, Rinku came in for Jurel, and Shivam Dube came in for Washington Sundar. 
INDIA Playing11: Sanju Samson(w), Abhishek Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav(c), Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya, Shivam Dube, Rinku Singh, Axar Patel, Arshdeep Singh, Ravi Bishnoi, Varun Chakravarthy
ENGLAND Playing11: Philip Salt(w), Ben Duckett, Jos Buttler(c), Harry Brook, Liam Livingstone, Jacob Bethell, Jamie Overton, Brydon Carse, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Saqib Mahmood
<h2>India Innings- 181/9 (20 Overs)</h2>
The Indian innings began on a shaky note, as early wickets put the team under pressure. Sanju Samson, the opener, was dismissed cheaply for just 1 run, followed by Tilak Varma and Suryakumar Yadav, who both fell for ducks in the same over. This was the first time Saqib Mahmood played against India in India and he made the most with three wickets in his first over. The scoreboard showed a fragile 12/3 after just 2 overs, leaving the middle order to rebuild.

It was a daunting situation, but Abhishek Sharma rose to the occasion, playing a spirited knock. He added 29 runs, providing some stability before falling to Rashid. Despite the early collapse, Sharma’s contribution offered a glimmer of hope.
As wickets continued to fall, it was Rinku Singh who took charge next. His 30 runs came at a steady pace, keeping the innings afloat amid the tumbling wickets. However, with the loss of Rinku, Hardik Pandya stepped in and took charge. His aggressive knock of 53 off 30 balls injected much-needed momentum into the innings.
Pandya, known for his flair, played some brilliant shots, taking on the bowlers with confidence. But as he was dismissed at 166/6, the task of reaching a competitive total seemed daunting again.

In the final overs, Shivam Dube kept the hopes alive, contributing another vital 53 runs. With his resilience and some decent contributions from the middle order, the Indian team recovered from the early collapse and put forth a competitive total of 182 runs.
The innings ended at 181/9, with the team left to reflect on a few crucial missed opportunities. The loss of wickets in quick succession early on severely hampered their progress, making it difficult to post a bigger total. The standout performances of Pandya and Dube were overshadowed by the fragility at the top, leaving India with a comparatively easier target to defend.
England Innings- 
England Started with Salt and Duckett and they just smashed all Indian bowlers to all parts of the ground in the first powerplay. Ben Duckett just went furious with an over 200 Strike rate in the first 6 overs losing his wicket on the last ball of the powerplay. Before that, he smashed 39 runs off just 18 balls. Phil Salt was equally aggressive, smoking four boundaries in the powerplay but fell against Axar Patel in the very next over after the powerplay.

Buttler went back soon in the 8th over and India were back in the game in the span of just 10 balls after the powerplay. Livingstone and Brook played out the tough session and the pressure started to build. Harshit Rana, the concussion substitute in for Shivam Dube got Liam Livingstone in the second ball of his first over. 
Harry Brook took the charge and started the counterattack. He took Harshit Rana on for 18 runs in the 14th over but couldn't do it for long as Varun Chakravarthy got him just after the completion of his half-century. England were in all sorts of trouble as Bryden Carse also lost his wicket in the same over. 
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_679d0182c8c49.jpg" alt="">
Harshit Rana again struck in his third over and took Bethell out of the game. Soon, Bishnoi got Archer and England were 8 down for 146 runs. They still needed 36 runs off 18 balls. Harshit bowled a tight 19th over and it was all over for England in the last over when Arshdeep Singh got Saqib Mahmood and England were bowled out for 166 runs. The picture was looking pretty clear after the 18th over and Harshit Rana made it obvious that India wins the series.
INDIA won the match by 15 runs

India's stunning recovery from 12/3 to post 181/9 was enough to defend against England, who fell short at 166, losing by 15 runs. Harshit Rana, the debutant rose to the moment and India won a thriller.

India fought back brilliantly after early setbacks, while England's chase crumbled under pressure from spinners, handing India a narrow victory.
