They got bullied black and blue in Asia Cup and world cup, the spin department is non existent and babar's insistence to defend shadab by not playing abrar isn't helping.I don't think they are terrible at the moment. A few bad games do not make them a bad team. Every player goes through periods of poor form. I don't believe anything catastrophic has occurred. The main issue is the fragile batting line up that has been exposed.
Their USA game was mostly lost by bowling poorly. People forget that USA were cruising with 100-1, and had 8 overs to chase 60, the match should not have gone to a Super over. They choked cause their a minnow in the same way Nepal threw the game against SA.
And amir bowled a horrible Super over. Ik amir and imad have either been on everyone's good side or bad side and theirs no inbetween but the reality is while amir may have bowled Super well against India and Canada, he was poor in the Super over.
Shaheen was also extremly subpar and rauf is always the same, Very expensive but takes wickets however in t20 him getting wickets is no big deal as batsmen attack and rauf bowls the middle overs so obviously he'll get more as batsmen are not trying to stay till the end.
The reason why all eyes are on batting is because in t20, Babar and rizwan have to be the worst t20 openers of all time followed by a horribly bad middle order which wasn't the case in 2018 and finally Babar isn't doing himself any favours when he sent chacha and Fakhar the same pair that got 2 against Zimbabwe and expected them to win a so and showed his coward mentality of ducking behind others.
