Bangladesh has finally done what the Pakistani team and its fans would have never imagined. Bangladesh has almost defeated Pakistan in the Test series on its home ground. Bangladesh is going to win the second Test played in Rawalpindi as well and with this, the Pakistani team is close to a clean sweep of 0-2. Let us tell you about those five players who may be out of the Pakistani team after the shameful performance against Bangladesh.

Abdullah Shafiq is gone!

If any player can be dropped from Pakistan's Test team first, then it is opener Abdullah Shafique. This Pakistani opener gave a very disappointing performance against Bangladesh. Although Shafique's technique is highly praised, in two Test matches he could score only 42 runs at an average of 10.50. His shot selection was under question.

The sword hangs over Babar Azam!

Babar Azam is also facing the threat of being dropped from the Test team. This top batsman of Pakistan is proving to be a huge failure in this format. The situation is such that Babar has not been able to score even a half-century in the last 16 Test innings. In the series against Bangladesh too, he could score only 64 runs at an average of 16. There is a great atmosphere in Pakistan against Babar Azam and PCB will not shy away from taking action against him as well.

Game over for Shaheen Afridi?

Apart from Babar Azam, it is now difficult for Shaheen Afridi to remain in the Test team. Shaheen was played in only one match of this Test series, he got 2 wickets in the first match. After this, he was dropped from the team in the second Test. Head coach Gillespie said that he has been given rest after talking to him, while the Pakistani media claims that Shaheen is unhappy with his exclusion in the second Test. Shaheen Afridi's performance is continuously deteriorating, his speed has also dropped considerably. Now if Afridi is not seen in the Pakistani Test team in the next Test series, then don't be surprised.

Consider it the game is over for Shan Masood too!

Pakistan's Test captain Shan Masood may also be dropped. Shan Masood has neither done well with the bat nor has his captaincy been good. Shan Masood has lost all the Tests under his captaincy. In batting too, he could only contribute 105 runs in this series at an average of 26.25. Shan Masood's Test average is also less than 30. If we look at the history of PCB, it will not hesitate to drop its captain as well.
