Lahore: Kiwi commentator, Simon Doull, has once again criticised a Pakistani batsman and it is not Babar Azam. Doull was critical of Mohammad Rizwan’s innings during the Qualifier between Multan Sultans and Lahore Qalandars yesterday in Lahore in PSL 8. While speaking during commentary, Doull said that Rizwan could have been more aggressive in the powerplay.

“33 off 29 and he’s out in the 14th over. It’s just not acceptable. He didn’t hit a boundary in 10 overs. The third over was his last boundary. You’ve got to take more risks than that,” Doull said. “This is a game where you get a second chance, so this is the game you take risks. This is the game you try and put the side under pressure, in case you have to play them again. This is where you show your wares, because if you do lose going for it, it doesn’t matter. The point is, this is a game where you can express yourself, do whatever you want to do, and that powerplay was just not good enough,” he added.
