Former opener and current cricket commentator, Ramiz Raja, came under fire on social media for his comments regarding the Pakistan and Zimbabwe Test series.

He added that Zimbabwe should stop playing Test cricket for some time and turn their focus solely towards limited-overs cricket.
His comments came after Pakistan comfortably won the two-match Test series, registering an innings victory in both matches as a weak Zimbabwe side was unable to put up a fight against a solid Pakistan Test side.

THE Zimbabwe national cricket team is facing an uphill task in their bid to level the two-match Test series against the visiting Pakistan side due to the absence of several experienced players ahead of the season Test which gets underway at Harare Sports Club on Friday.
Zimbabwe Cricket revealed on Thursday that the national side will be without the injured trio of Sean Williams, Prince Masvaure, and Craig Ervine who have joined the likes of Sikandar Raza and Kyle Jarvis on the growing list of injured players.
In a bid to bolster the weakened side selectors have included Wessly Madhevere in the squad while Takudzwanashe Kaitano, who joined the squad as cover on the eve of the first game last week, has been retained.
