Babar Azam: Pakistan's squad overhaul before England cricket test was 'news to me'
What happened
Pakistan captain Babar Azam admitted he was blindsided by the decision to tear up his squad ahead of this week's final cricket test against England, saying the drastic cull was "news to me." Babar learned of the wholesale changes only after an official statement by the Pakistan Cricket Board, he said on Tuesday, the day before the third test at Edgbaston. “It was news to me,” Babar said in Urdu.
