IndiaPakistan cricket captain Babar Azam continues to struggle in Test matches, scoring only six runs in the second innings against England at Lord's. This follows his inability to score a Test century since December 2022. Former Pakistan cricketer and batting coach Mohammad Yousuf criticized the current coaching staff for failing to address Babar's technical flaws, which he claims have contributed to Pakistan's recent decline in performance. Yousuf accused the coaches of hindering player development and causing poor overseas results, noting Pakistan's loss in nine of their last 10 away games. Babar was removed as Test captain in late 2023 but returned to the role in July 2026 after previous captain Shan Masood's tenure did not yield success.
