At the post-match presentation, Babar Azam stated the absence of partnerships is behind the seven-wicket loss and he also felt they weren’t good with the ball either. He stated:

“We started well, a good partnership. We just planned to play normal cricket and build a partnership. Suddenly, there was a collapse and we could not finish well. Not good for us, the way we started, our target was 280-290 but the collapse cost us. The total was not good. We are not up to the mark with the new ball.”

Abdul Razzaq remarked indirectly that the Pak team and staff could suffer the same fate as Bob Woolmer during the 2007 World Cup in the West Indies

What exactly happened to Bob Woolmer?

During the 2007 World Cup in the Caribbean, Bob Woolmer served as Pakistan’s coach. Unfortunately, midway through the tournament, he died under questionable circumstances. That year, Pakistan didn’t have a campaign worth remembering, losing to Ireland, the team exited the tournament in the group stage of the tournament.

Speaking to a local sports channel, Razzaq stated:

“Pakistan mein jo Bob Woolmer ka haal hua tha, vahi haal hoga. Jin Jin logon ki vajah se Pakistan yeh match haara hai, unhein resign karke chale jaana chahiye. Inke paas na acche fast bowlers hain ya spinners. Yeh sab us stage mein hain jahan inko performance deni chahiye. Confidence ki baat tab aati hai jab kam cricket kheli ho. Abhi toh saal mein itne matches hote hain.”

(“He’ll meet the same fate as Bob Woolmer. Players who were responsible for the defeat should resign. They don’t have good fast bowlers or spinners. Players are at a stage where they must deliver and the question of confidence comes when they have had less cricket. But now players play so many games over a year.”)

Former Pakistani Cricketer Abdul Razzaq says what happened with Bob Woolmer will happen again.
