Srinagar, May 8: Former Pakistan speedster turned expert Shoaib Akhtar has said that Pakistan skipper Babar Azam should stay positive inspite of his bad patch in ongoing Test series against Zimbabwe.

Babar Azam was out on golden duck in first test match while as got out cheaply on the score of two runs in first inning of second test match .

Shoaib Akhtar speaking on PTV Sports said that Babar have to wait for long time in dressing as top order is doing well in series which may have affected his concentration .

“Worrying point is again Babar Azam because he is not scoring runs. Against this Zimbabwe team, he has to wait for his turn because first opener and then Azhar Ali played long innings. Babar has to wear his pads and be ready during that time, which is the best and worst part of Test cricket,” Akhtar said on PTV Sports .

“You have to sit and watch with concentration and you can’t talk much as well. So, basically you are in a quarantine within a quarantine. Babar should have scored atleast 300-400 runs during this series,” he explained .

The former pacer backed Babar Azam to come good and score runs .

“Sometimes it happens that you can’t score runs but I’m sure Babar is trying his best. We expect a lot from him so we should try to stay positive,” he added.

Centuries by Abid Ali and Azhar Ali put Pakistan in a strong position on the first day of the second Test against Zimbabwe at Harare Sports Club on Friday.
