Babar Azam, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf Dropped from Pakistan T20I Squad

Pakistan's cricket team has dropped three of its key players, Babar Azam, Shaheen Shah Afridi, and Haris Rauf, from their squad for the upcoming T20I series against Sri Lanka.

The main reason is that these players' strike rates are not high enough for the fast-paced T20 format.

Babar Azam, who has scored a lot of runs, has a strike rate of 128.45, which is considered too low for T20 cricket.

The team's coach, Mike Hesson, said that while strike rate is important, it's also crucial to have players who can score a lot of runs.

He believes Babar and others can improve and contribute more to the team.
