Pakistan cricket team could not make it to the semi-finals of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 hosted by India last year. After Pakistan failed to reach the playoffs of the tournament, captain Babar Azam resigned from his post.

After Babar resigned from the captaincy, the Pakistan Cricket Board handed over the captaincy of Test format to Shan Masood and captaincy of T20 format to Shaheen Afridi. However, the Pakistan cricket team could not perform anything special under the captaincy of the pair of Masood and Afridi. So now reports are coming that once again Pakistan cricket management is looking towards Babar Azam to take charge of the team.

But former captain and veteran batsman Babar Azam has put some important conditions before the PCB before taking over the captaincy of the Pakistan cricket team. According to these conditions, Babar wants the head coach of the team to be changed.

He also wants to captain all three formats simultaneously, but the selection committee wants Shaheen Afridi to captain the shortest format of the game. It is noteworthy that under the captaincy of Shaheen, Pakistan lost 4-1 to New Zealand in the T20 series.

PCB source gave important information

Let us tell you that a senior source of Pakistan Cricket Board was quoted as saying by The Hindu – Some members of the selection committee feel that Shaheen Afridi should be allowed to remain the captain for the home T20 series against New Zealand in April and he should prove his ability. Be given a chance to do it.

The source further said- He (Babar Azam) has made his opinion clear to the PCB chief and has now asked him to take the final decision. Naqvi has asked the selection committee to convince Babar to accept the captaincy of white ball cricket now and the board will decide on the captaincy of red ball cricket after the T20 World Cup.

Jitesh has played 9 T20 International matches for India, in which he has scored 100 runs at an average of 14.28 and an excellent strike rate of 147.05. Jitesh Sharma (Photo Source: IPL/BCCI) Indian young wicketkeeper-batsman Jitesh Sharma impressed everyone with his performance in the IPL and due to this he got a chance in Team India. However, in the 2024 IPL, Jitesh could score only 187 runs in 12 innings. During this period his strike rate was also only 131.6. Now meanwhile, Jitesh has revealed that he was thinking a lot about the T20 World Cup 2024 during the tournament, due to which his performance in IPL 2024 was disappointing. He also revealed that he was in India’s plans, but did not get a chance due to the abundance of wicketkeeper-batsmen in the team. Speaking to India TV, Jitesh said, “When the IPL started, I was thinking a lot about the World Cup and perhaps that is why I could not focus much on the given match.” I too would have given priority to both of them – Jitesh Sharma “I have no shame in admitting it,” he confessed. It is what it is. I couldn’t think clearly because the World Cup selection was on my mind. The moment the team was selected, my batting got much better. I felt more open, I knew I wasn’t in the team, because I knew I had to focus and score runs. So I managed to play 2-3 good innings till the end of the tournament.” Jitesh Sharma further said, “If I were a selector, I would not have selected myself at that time because Rishabh Pant came back and proved himself and the form Sanju Bhai was in, I would not have selected myself. I too would have given priority to both of them.” Let us tell you that Jitesh has played 9 T-20 international matches for India, in which he has scored 100 runs at an average of 14.28 and an excellent strike rate of 147.05. He last played against Afghanistan in January 2024. In IPL 2023, Jitesh Sharma scored 309 runs at a strike rate of 156.06.
