Kamran Ghulam: Kamran Ghulam did wonders in the very first match, leaving Babar Azam behind in just 15 balls

Kamran Ghulam, who replaced Babar Azam in Pakistan's playing eleven, has done wonders. Kamran scored a brilliant half-century in his debut Test innings. The big thing is that when Kamran came to the crease, Pakistan lost 2 wickets early. After this, Kamran along with Sam Ayub made a good partnership and recovered Pakistan from the initial setbacks. Kamran Akmal also defeated Babar Azam during his excellent innings.

Babar is behind in just 15 balls.

Kamran Ghulam started very solidly. He displayed excellent defense on a broken and cracked pitch. However, this right-handed batsman also hit the ball as soon as he got the chance. Ghulam hit a brilliant six on the 15th ball of his career and with this, he also left Babar Azam behind.

Babur fell behind Ghulam

Well, the matter of sixes is different but it is becoming difficult for Babar to stay at the crease. On the other hand, Kamran Ghulam has shown in the first Test innings that he is a long-format player and Pakistan made a wrong decision by keeping him on the bench for a long time.
