Suspense has arisen to play Babar Azam in the India-Pakistan match. This suspense has stood up from his decision not to get into practice before such an important match. The question is that if Babar Azam does not play, then what will be the playing XI of Pakistan? Who will replace them again in the team? And, the biggest thing is that if Babur does not play against India, then how much will Pakistan suffer?

But if Babar Azam is also out, then who will take his place? What will be Pakistan's playing XI in Mahamukabale against India?At the moment, there is suspense on whether Babar Azam will play or not. But, if he does not play, then Usman Khan can get a place in the playing XI instead of Babar Azam. Usman Khan is a wicketkeeper batsman and he has experience of playing in opening and middle order.
Therefore, the Pakistani team can feed them anywhere according to their convenience.Who can play in place of Fakhar Jaman, that is almost almost clear. Imam ul can replace him. Just what will be the combination of opening if Babur does not play, it will be a matter to be seen.
