By doing this we can bring back the pride of Pakistan cricket and the performance of the team can be much better than before.

Pakistani coaches Jason Gillespie and Gary Kirsten told PCB- ‘Do not suspend captain Shan Masood and Babar Azam’

Pakistan’s white ball cricket coach is Gary Kirsten and red ball cricket coach is Jason Gillespie. Gary Kirsten and Jason Gillespie (Image Credit- Twitter Pakistan cricket team’s white ball and red ball cricket coaches Gary Kirsten and Jason Gillespie have recently given a big statement and have told the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) not to change the captain of the team in a hurry after Pakistan’s poor performance in all formats.

After this, Shaheen got the command of the T20 team, and after a bad series, he was also suspended. So Babar was replaced by Shan Masood in Test cricket, and some media reports claimed that after losing 0-2 in the home two-match Test series against Bangladesh, Masood could also be removed from the post of captaincy. However, now recently a senior PCB source has given a big statement regarding this. PCB source gave a big statement Let us tell you that recently a senior source of Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) in an interview given to PTI was quoted by India Today as saying – There has been no discussion on changing the captains, as PCB President Mohsin Naqvi has left the decision on captaincy to the two coaches and selectors. Gary Kirsten and Jason Gillispie are very clear that both Shan and Babar need to be given proper time before their leadership abilities can be assessed. From this statement given by this senior PCB source, you can guess that both the coaches have clearly told the PCB that Masood and Azam should be given enough time to prove themselves. However, now it will be interesting to see how Pakistan performs in the three-match home Test series against England in October after facing defeat against Bangladesh?
