Babar Azam hinted to keep the wicket-keeper-batsman in the middle order.

Pakistan captain Babar Azam believes that wicketkeeper-batsman Sarfraz Ahmed can still play an important role for the team as the team needs a batsman like him in the middle order. Can also be a regular part of After failing in the first two matches between Danish Aziz and Asif Ali, Sarfraz was included in the playing XI for the first time in the third ODI.

He scored 13 runs off 13 balls."I accept that our center arranges battles but I do not think its execution is as awful as a few individuals have made it out to be," Babar said. There is a gap in our middle order where we are missing a certain type of player that we are trying to fill and that is why we have brought Sarfraz to test, we have to use the experience on the bench. Wanted so we brought Sarfraz inside.

"Sarfraz is with us since we have certainty in him. In ODI cricket, we will try to use him as much as possible as a wicket-keeper and batsman because, at number five, you need to take the game forward," he said.

 The middle-order was struggling and although Sarfraz Ahmed could not score more runs today the whole team played its part in winning. Remember that in the third match played on Wednesday, Fakhruzzaman Scored 101 runs, in the second ODI he scored 193 runs. Now a series of 4 T20 matches will be played between Pakistan and South Africa from Saturday.
