Salman Ali Agha confirms Babar Azam’s return for 2nd Test vs England ...Middle East

This is a massive victory for the side in terms of the performance they had in the last few months in the traditional format of the game. England have lost the last three series they have played against Australia (loss), India (draw) and New Zealand (loss). Also, the last time Pakistan won a Test match at Leeds was when Imran Khan was captain.

Babar Azam was ruled out of the first Test match after he sustained a finger injury during the second Test match against West Indies. However, while recovering, he was struck in the same place during the warm-up match against the Professional County Club Select XI in Beckenham, which had made him sit out the first game.

Babar Azam Test captaincy record unmatched

Pakistan are still waiting for an away Test win under any captain other than Babar Azam since 2021, as they have won 9 games under Babar and 0 under all other skippers. The last away win also came when Babar was the skipper in the second Test against the Windies.

He also credited Abdullah Shafique, who was Pakistan's best batter in the first innings, scoring 61 runs. He said, And the way Abdullah batted, I think it's outstanding as well in first innings. He's been batting well since his comeback, so hopefully he can continue as well."
