Pakistan spin-bowling all-rounder Shadab Khan has said he does not dwell on criticism, choosing instead to focus on his performances.
Shadab has faced heavy criticism over a lack of consistency since his return to the national team.
During the recent three-match ODI series against Australia, he failed to impress with the ball, taking two wickets at an average of 69.
However, it was a whole different story with the bat as the 27-year-old scored 100 runs, which included a top score of 71, at an average of 100.
“I don’t think too much about the criticism,” he was quoted as saying by respected journalist Saj Sadiq on X.
Pakistan will now face the West Indies in a two-Test series in Trinidad and Tobago from July 25 to August 6.
They will then tour England for three Tests from August 19 to September 13.
