The loss in Birmingham leaves the Babar Azam-led side trailing 0-1 in the four-match series after the first T20I was washed out.<br \/>Malik, observing Pakistan&#8217;s performance, suggested several changes to the batting order.He emphasized that <!-- -->international cricket<!-- --> demands a different approach compared to domestic leagues like the <!-- -->Pakistan Super League<!-- --> (PSL). <br \/>The 42-year-old proposed that <!-- -->Fakhar Zaman<!-- --> should open the innings with Mohammad Rizwan, followed by <!-- -->Babar Azam<!-- -->, Iftikhar Ahmed, Imad Wasim, and Shadab Khan.On his X handle, Malik wrote: &#8220;This is not PSL, this is international cricket that too, just before the T20 World Cup. IMO, the batting order should be&#8230; Fakhar, Rizwan, Babar Azam, Iftikhar, Imad, Shadab. Captain needs to utilize the options on the bench wisely.&#8221;<br \/>Malik also stressed the importance of giving finishers like Azam Khan and Iftikhar Ahmed adequate time in the middle. He argued that expecting them to start scoring at a high rate immediately is unrealistic and unfair. <br \/>&#8220;Moving forward, the captain should give time &amp; enough overs to Azam &amp; Iftikhar to settle first, expecting them to score 12-14 right away is unfair. All the best for the remaining matches!!!&#8221; Malik added.<\/p>\n<p>As Pakistan gears up for the remaining matches in the series and the upcoming T20 World Cup, Malik&#8217;s comments highlight the need for strategic adjustments to enhance the team&#8217;s performance on the international stage.<\/div>\n<p><script>!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    function loadFBEvents(isFBCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isFBCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        if (f.fbq) return;\n        n = f.fbq = function() {\n          n.callMethod ? n.callMethod(...arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n        };\n        if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n        n.push = n;\n        n.loaded = !0;\n        n.version = '2.0';\n        n.queue = [];\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js', n, t, s);\n      fbq('init', '593671331875494');\n      fbq('track', 'PageView');\n    };<\/p>\n<p>    function loadGtagEvents(isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      var id = document.getElementById('toi-plus-google-campaign');\n      if (id) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        t.id = 'toi-plus-google-campaign';\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/www.googletagmanager.com\/gtag\/js?id=AW-877820074', n, t, s);\n    };<\/p>\n<p>    function loadSurvicateJs(allowedSurvicateSections = []){\n      const section =  window.location.pathname.split('\/')[1]\n      const isHomePageAllowed = window.location.pathname === '\/' && allowedSurvicateSections.includes('homepage')<\/p>\n<p>      if(allowedSurvicateSections.includes(section) || isHomePageAllowed){\n        (function(w) {\n          var s = document.createElement('script');\n          s.src=\"https:\/\/survey.survicate.com\/workspaces\/0be6ae9845d14a7c8ff08a7a00bd9b21\/web_surveys.js\";\n          s.async = true;\n          var e = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];\n          e.parentNode.insertBefore(s, e);\n        })(window);\n      }<\/p>\n<p>    }<\/p>\n<p>    window.TimesApps = window.TimesApps || {};\n    var TimesApps = window.TimesApps;\n    TimesApps.toiPlusEvents = function(config) {\n      var isConfigAvailable = \"toiplus_site_settings\" in f && \"isFBCampaignActive\" in f.toiplus_site_settings && \"isGoogleCampaignActive\" in f.toiplus_site_settings;\n      var isPrimeUser = window.isPrime;\n      if (isConfigAvailable && !isPrimeUser) {\n        loadGtagEvents(f.toiplus_site_settings.isGoogleCampaignActive);\n        loadFBEvents(f.toiplus_site_settings.isFBCampaignActive);\n        loadSurvicateJs(f.toiplus_site_settings.allowedSurvicateSections);\n      } else {\n        var JarvisUrl=\"https:\/\/jarvis.indiatimes.com\/v1\/feeds\/toi_plus\/site_settings\/643526e21443833f0c454615?db_env=published\";\n        window.getFromClient(JarvisUrl, function(config){\n          if (config) {\n            loadGtagEvents(config?.isGoogleCampaignActive);\n            loadFBEvents(config?.isFBCampaignActive);\n            loadSurvicateJs(config?.allowedSurvicateSections);\n          }\n        })\n      }\n    };\n  })(\n    window,\n    document,\n    'script',\n  );<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/news\/this-is-not-psl-shoaib-malik-criticizes-pakistan-team-after-loss-to-england\/articleshow\/110435991.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] NEW DELHI: Pakistan cricketer Shoaib Malik has voiced strong criticism of the team management following Pakistan&#8217;s 23-run defeat to England in the second T20I on Saturday.
