Does Babar Azam “Want To Play On These Roads To Improve His Own Stats”: Ex NZ Pacer’s Scathing Criticism Of Pakistan Pitches | Cricket News

Former New Zealand fast bowler Simon Doull© BCCI/IPLFormer New Zealand fat bowler Simon Doull, who is currently on the commentary panel for the ongoing second Test match ween Pakistan and New Zealand in Karachi has lashed out at the PCB for the dead pitches that are being doled out for Test cricket. Pakistan has been criticised for its placid surfaces ever since they have started hosting Test cricket back in their own country. The pitches offer very little  help for bowlers and batters often go on to get big scores. The first match of the series had ended in a draw nd the second Test also looks like meandering towards another boring draw.Speaking on commentary Doull said, “”Where do these directives come from? Do they come from Babar Azam? Does he want to play on these roads to improve his own stats.”Audio of Simon Doull criticising Pakistan’s pitches”Where do these directives come from?
