Pakistan wicketkeeper-batter Azam Khan has deleted all Instagram posts or probably archived them following criticism over his lackluster performance in the recent T20 series against England.
Azam Khan could not score any runs in the final T20 match against England and missed a couple of catches back the wicket.
This led fans to criticise him online for his dismal performance with both batting and wicketkeeping.
In a video circulating on social media, Babar Azam was seen approaching and motivating the 25-year-old batter as he stood disappointed after the match.

Azam Khan's performance sparked debate among cricket fans. Some questioned his fitness and selection, while others defended him, arguing that the blame should not fall solely on him.
The fans also asked to hold the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) management accountable for fielding him without ensuring he was fully prepared.
Pakistan were bowled out for only 157 in the final T20 against England on May 30th. England chased down the target effortlessly, winning with 27 balls remaining
Pakistan ultimately lost the four-match T20 series to England 1-2. One match was abandoned due to rain in Leeds, and another in Cardiff.
Both teams have reached the United States to show action in the T20 World Cup. Azam Khan is also part of the Pakistan squad for the tournament.
