Islamabad, Oct 15: Pakistan vs England Kamran Ghulam Shines with Fifty on Test Debut in Multan
The replacement for Babar Azam, Kamran Ghulam, has started the second Test match against England in Multan with a remarkable show of talent and poise.
Pakistan vs England Kamran Ghulam After an early loss, the teenage batsman steadied Pakistan’s innings with an important fifty and forged a crucial 100-run partnership with Saim Ayub, who also reached his half-century.
Pakistan was in a vulnerable situation after losing the first two wickets of opener Abdullah Shafique and skipper Shan Masood.
But Saim Ayub and Kamran Ghulam’s collaboration has brought much-needed consistency, leading the side to a first-day score of 120 for 2.
Due to his outstanding home record, Kamran Ghulam was added to the team. Ghulam’s record of 4,377 runs at an average of 49.17 in 59 matches—including 16 hundreds and 20 half-centuries—shows that he can compete at a high level on a regular basis. He was given the chance to replace Babar Azam, who was rested for this Test, due to his success at home.
The way Ghulam performed today demonstrated his potential and validated the selectors’ choice to offer him an opportunity to compete internationally.
Pakistan’s ability to bounce back from the early defeats has been greatly aided by his capacity to remain composed under duress and forge a meaningful alliance with Ayub.
