The spectators initially paid little attention but due to the changing circumstances in the match, the interest of the spectators continued to increase and they moved to the stadium, but the number of spectators arriving at the stadium could not be satisfied. It is a momentary thought not to reach 3,000 spectators in a stadium with more seats, in which all stakeholders, including the Pakistan Cricket Board, have to work together and find out the reasons which will lead to the spectator's stadium. Avoid turning.

In the future, more steps will be taken to bring the spectators to the stadium, which is to create a point of interest for the most important spectators; various incentives will force the spectators to come to the ground and increase their interest. , PCB's offer of free admission to citizens and children of educational institutions has made a very positive impression, but in the name of security, there are efforts to protect spectators from hassle.

If PCB officials want to give time to Azhar Ali, this principle should have been adopted with Sarfraz Ahmed as well, which is why in the first innings of the Karachi Test, captain Zafar Khutfar was shouted at by the audience. Fawad Alam, who made it to the Test team after struggling for ten years, continued to chant slogans for his fans while Sarfraz Ahmed's fans also shouted slogans at Bring Back.
