Pakistan cricket, often in disarray, is currently battling the return of Babar Azam as captain and Shaheen Afridi was sacked as T20 captain after just one game . Some former cricketers have been critical of the Pakistan Cricket Board’s handling of the captain’s matter.

Shaheen was relieved of his T20I captaincy last week after leading the men in green in a series in which Pakistan lost 1-4 to New Zealand. PCB has reinstated Babar Azam as captain in the white-ball format ahead of the 2024 T20 World Cup.

Announcing the captaincy change, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) said Babar’s reinstatement was a “strategic move” to ensure the health and optimal performance of the players.

However, former captain Misbah-ul-Haq had a different view on the captaincy change and said such a decision could affect the payers.

“The process of changing the captain of the national team is very unpleasant and it affects the players. All we have are star players. Babar Azam is a star, Shaheen Shah is a star and we sincerely wish the team well,” Mi Siba told reporters. media reports, according to Geo News.
