Shahid Afridi said that when he was appointed captain, the former all-rounder was not given many opportunities but Babar Azam is being given continuous opportunities and despite this, Pakistan has not won a single ICC event under his captaincy. A video of Shahid Afridi is going viral in which he said, ‘They should first decide on the captain or coach and then give time. As far as Babar is concerned, he has also captained a lot and has been given a lot of opportunities. As soon as the World Cup is over, the captain is the first one to be blamed. He has got enough opportunities in 2 to 3 World Cups and two to three Asia Cups.’ Pakistan had a disappointing performance in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 Let us tell you, Pakistan’s performance was very poor in this entire tournament. The team was first defeated by America and then Pakistan had to face defeat against India as well. Babar Azam also batted very poorly in this entire tournament and he was being heavily criticized.

“Remove Babar first”- Shahid Afridi is not happy with the removal of Abdul Razzaq and Wahab Riaz
The PCB has removed Riaz and Razzaq from the selection committee, marking the beginning of the ‘surgery’ that chief Mohsin Naqvi had promised. The board released a statement that read (via Deccan Herald): “We have informed Abdul Razzaq and Wahab Riaz that they will no longer be required in the National Selection Committee. The PCB will provide further updates on the composition of the selection committee in due course.” Meanwhile, Afridi spoke to reporters in London and said no player has got as many opportunities as Babar Azam as captain. As quoted by CricketPakistan.pk, the former chief selector said: “No captain has ever had so many chances. Usually, the captain is the first one to be dropped right after the World Cup. We have also led the team, like me, Younis Khan and Misbah-ul-Haq, but Babar has got the most opportunities. Let’s take a decisive step and support him wholeheartedly whatever he brings. To be honest, this kind of surgery is beyond my understanding.” PCB has removed only Razzaq and Wahab Riaz for now, but can take many big decisions in the next few days. Board chairman Mohsin Naqvi has also held two important meetings, in which white-ball coach Gary Kirsten and red-ball coach Jason Gillespie were present. During this, there was a discussion about improving the team. Not only this, he also met more than two dozen former and current cricketers to bring about improvement in Pakistan cricket.

The body language of the leader of the team becomes the body language of the team. As a leader you have to set an example. For this, take the example of Rohit Sharma. If you look at Rohit’s leadership and his style of play, even the lower order batsmen of the team become confident and assured because they know that their captain is also playing an aggressive brand of cricket. Shahid further said about the Pakistan cricket team- I don’t know what the PCB chairman has in mind now, and I am also waiting to see what changes will be made, but I have always supported the team and will continue to do so. I am also waiting to see what these changes will be. A positive decision needs to be taken, but the real issue is on our grassroots cricket.
