NEW DELHI: Criticism continues to flow in after

Pakistan

's dismal show in the

T20 World Cup

in the

United States

and West Indies.
Pakistan were stunned by the US losing in the Super Over and also went down to archrivals India by 6 runs.
Pakistan defeated Canada and Ireland but that wasn't enough to take them through the

Super Eights

stage.
And as the case has always been, it's the captain of the ship that gets the most criticism and in this case

Babar Azam

has been copping flak from all over, for his batting and captaincy as well, specially the way they pressed the panic button against India after cruising at one stage.

Now a video has surfaced in which former Pakistan cricketer

Shoaib Malik

has slammed

Babar

Azam saying that the Pakistan can't fit in any top international side.
Speaking at a talk show after the India-England semifinal, Shoaib Malik asks, "Who is our best player? Our best player is Babar Azam. I am just talking about the top 4-5 teams. Can Babar fit in the playing XI of those teams? Of Australia, of India or of England in just this particular format? The answer is NO!"

In the four matches he played in this edition of the T20 World Cup, Babar scored 122 runs with a highest score of 44 at an average of 40.66 and a strike rate of 101.66.
