Pak vs NZ 2nd Test is currently in the balance and most likely heading towards a draw due to the Karachi pitch, which offers nothing to the bowlers. The pitch for the 2nd Test had a bit of grass on it on the first two days when New Zealand was batting at the crease. However, it is rumoured that the curators had used a heavy roller on the pitch before the start of the 3rd day of the Test to completely evaporate all the help for the bowlers.
It seems that Simon Doull has recognised this fact. The former Kiwi pacer was doing the commentary on the third day of the Test match and said something very shocking. His remark has caused outrage among the fans of Babar Azam, but many cricketing experts also agree with him as well.
Here is the video of Simon Doull saying Babar Azam wants to bat on the road to improve his own stats:

The other commentator laughed it off, and we did not get the answer to this serious question which Simon Doull posed. The accountability regarding the pitches in Pakistan has been a topic of hot discussion, and the new Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) regime needs to sort out this matter as soon as possible to avoid the wrath of the cricketing fans.
