Under the leadership of Salman Agha, Pakistan lost the first two games of the series against New Zealand by a massive margin. The youngsters haven't played to their best and it didn't even once look in the two games that they are ready for the international stage.
In the first game, Pakistan got all out for 91 runs and then went on to lose the game by the margin of 9 wickets. It was expected that they would come up with a fighting effort in the second match but that wasn't the case.

Pakistan then failed to defend the target as New Zealand batters slammed bowlers all over the park. Haris Rauf was the only player who looked settled with the ball as he picked up two wickets and gave away 20 runs in the 3 overs that he bowled.

However, in a shocking development, as per journalist Qadir Khawaja, it is learned that skipper Salman Agha didn't want one player in the team. The skipper kept three conditions in front of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), out of which the first two were accepted while the third one was rejected.

This could be a potential signal towards Shaheen Afridi. Of late, there have been a lot of reports that claimed that the fast bowler has been creating a lot of indiscipline in the team. Even former coaches in Gary Kirsten and Jason Gillespie reportedly accused the pacer of the same.
