‘Aaj bhi Bichare ko experiment ke Liye bahar kar diya’ - Fans react to viral cryptic tweet from Imam-ul-Haq before 5th ODI between Pakistan and New Zealand

On 7 May 2023, Pakistan locked horns with New Zealand in the fifth match of the ongoing ODI series at home. But, before the match, Imam-ul-Haq came up with a cryptic tweet and he wrote: “Life is an unexpected journey so never expect anything from anyone”. Be patient, Allah is watching.”

It seemed that he might be dropped once again in this match as he was dropped in the fourth ODI. However, it turned out to be true as Shan Masood played instead of him. Imam won the Player of the Match award in the third ODI for scoring 90 runs off 107 balls. But, still, he got dropped for the last two matches.

Here is the shared tweet:

Imam-ul-Haq has scored 158 runs in three matches of this ongoing series

However, some fans claimed that his statement after the third ODI about the requirement of experiments in the team has backfired him. During the post-match press conference after the third ODI, Imam said: “It is not appropriate to experiment with the team at this stage. Sometimes it is very different to come at number five or six and play only six or seven overs. We need to continue with the current lower middle: order to give them enough confidence.”

“I am happy that team has won the 3rd ODI and the series. I played my part in it, though every batsman feels a little bit disappointed when he gets out on the nineties. It is because we both are playing together for so long and batted through every thick and thin. Fakhar does not speak a lot and Babar does not remain quiet for long. It is fun batting with both of them because Babar is a good friend of mine, and Fakhar has been batting with me since time in domestic cricket,” Imam further added. However, in three matches, Imam-ul-Haq scored 158 runs at an average of 58 with two fifty-plus scores.
