5 reasons for Pakistan's hasty exit from the ICC Champions Trophy

2. Misbah’s Batting position

Ad

The lone warrior in this batting side was booed by the Pakistan fans as he walked up to talk to Nasser Hussain for the post-match presentation after the defeat against India. Perhaps, he deserved it too. Misbah failed as a leader more than he failed as a batsmen. Having observed his team go down to the knees against the pace of the West Indies bowling attack, he should have promoted himself up the batting order given his form. Not only did he let his team down by failing to lead from the front, he also negated his own batting performances. His captaincy stint with Pakistan might be over.
