Former Pakistan spinner Saeed Ajmal slammed the selectors after the Babar Azam-led side slumped to a series defeat against England on home soil last week. Leading the series 3-2 at one point, Pakistan were outclassed in the last two games of the seven-matches, conceding the series 3-4. While highlighting Pakistan's middle-order issues, which have been evident since the start of the Asia Cup, Ajmal angrily suggested that the selectors could instead look at unfit players who can bat with some intent.
