  1. Kamran Akmal wants England to support Zak Crawley Pakistan cricketer Kamran Akmal has shared that Zak Crawley could become similar to the England captain Joe Root for his side if he gets the proper backing from the team management. However, Crawley was dropped for the second Test against India at Lord’s, after he managed to score 27 and 6 runs respectively at Nottingham. Earlier, he had scored only 21 runs in the two-match Test series against New Zealand as well. And, his never-ending poor show has seen his exclusion from the team. The wicketkeeper-batter said on his YouTube channel: “Sorry to say, I don’t want to disrespect anyone, but I haven’t seen such a weak opening pair (Rory Burns and Dom Sibley) in England’s history. I think it is better for England to play Zak Crawley in 5-6 Test matches as an opener. He is a much better cricketer. The more he plays, he will improve that much. He can be as good as Joe Root in the times to come. He played at No. 3 and unfortunately got dropped. But I think England need to think in that direction now.” Meanwhile, Kamran Akmal also added that England’s rotation policy for players has been harming them and their performances than doing good to the team as well.

  2. He again explained: “As per my analysis, their rotation policy, though meant for good, perhaps damaged their Test cricket a bit. They have experimented a lot; as a result players are not being able to settle in. Apart from Joe Root, no one is scoring runs. Earlier, England had a middle-order comprising the likes of Kevin Pietersen, Jonathan Trott and Ian Bell. They could build partnerships. So even if England lost wickets at the top, these batters could steady the innings.” The third Test between India and England will begin on August 25 as well.
