Previously, Doull had questioned Babar’s decision to slow down the pace of scoring runs just when he was about to reach the 100-run mark. Doull stated that Babar was not putting the team first and was instead focusing on personal milestones. He suggested that Babar should have been looking for boundaries, especially since there was still a lot of firepower to come. While hundreds are brilliant and stats are great, team goals should come first, Doull emphasized.
Meanwhile, the match between Islamabad and Multan saw the Shadab Khan-led team win by 2 runs, chasing down the target of 206 runs on the penultimate ball of the match.
