Actually, a video was posted from an ‘X’ account named Babar Azam World in which Babar Azam is seen going to the dressing room after the match. It is written with this video that, ‘When Irfan Pathan requested Babar Azam for an interview and he refused.’ However, Irfan Pathan is nowhere to be seen in this video. Harbhajan Singh replied to this post and wrote, ‘Where is Irfan Pathan in this video?? You people already did not have the manners to speak. Have you lost your eyesight now? By the way, if you ask a question in English, you will get into trouble.’ where is it @IrfanPathan in this video ?? You people did not have the tameness to speak earlier. Now have you stopped seeing with your eyes? In any case, if you ask the question in English, you will get into trouble. — Harbhajan Turbanator (@harbhajan_singh) August 1, 2024 Many people are supporting this comment of Harbhajan Singh, while many fans believe that big players like him should not have replied in this manner. Often fans of India and Pakistan come face to face on social media. Cricket lovers often keep arguing about their favorite players. Something similar was seen this time as well.

“We are very concerned about security….”- Bangladesh seeks security advisor from government before going on Pakistan tour
Bangladesh team will soon tour Pakistan. Bangladesh Cricket Team (Photo Source: The Champions Trophy 2025 is to be played in Pakistan. There is no clarity yet as to whether this ICC tournament will be played fully in Pakistan or in a hybrid model. In fact, due to security concerns, it seems impossible for India to go to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy. Meanwhile, keeping in mind the safety of its players in Pakistan, the Bangladesh Cricket Board has also sought a security advisor from its government for the upcoming tour. Let us tell you, Bangladesh has to tour Pakistan this month. Bangladesh has to play a two-match Test series against Pakistan at their home which will be a part of the ICC World Test Championship. Due to the political situation in Pakistan, many teams do not want to go there to play a series. The Bangladesh team will tour Pakistan on 17 August and will play a two-match Test series against the host team. The first match of the series will be played in Rawalpindi (21-25 August) and the second match will be played in Karachi (30 August-3 September). BCB President Jalal Yunus made a big statement before the tour “Look, it is their (Pakistan’s) job to provide security and we went there because they assured us of state-level security and the tour was planned after their assurance. I think you must have seen in the Asia Cup that the Bangladesh team went to Pakistan and they provided us state-level security and we agreed to go on this tour because they assured us of that,” BCB cricket operations chairman Jalal Yunus told reporters on Wednesday. He further said, “You must have seen in recent times that some international teams have also visited (Pakistan) and they are quite happy with the security provided. We are also very concerned about security but after knowing everything and getting assurance from them about security, we have decided to tour. Also, we have requested the government to provide us a security advisor during the tour who will keep communicating with them all the time about security issues.”
Mohsin Naqvi is preparing to replace Jai Shah, may become the next President of ACC
Current PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi may soon become the new President of the Asian Cricket Council. Syed Mohsin Raza Naqvi. (Image Source: X) A big update has come out through some media reports. It is being told that Mohsin Naqvi can become the new President of the Asian Cricket Council (ACC). Naqvi, the current President of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), is set to be made the new President of the ACC under the rotation policy. The current President of the ACC is Jay Shah, Secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). The matter of the post of President was discussed in the recent ACC meeting in which Naqvi is in the race to become the next President. A source said, “When the ACC meets later this year, it will confirm that Naqvi will be the next president for a two-year term.” Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah is currently the ACC president and was extended for a year for his third consecutive term in January this year. After Jai Shah, Mohsin Naqvi will become the President of ACC The source said, ‘When Jay Shah steps down, the PCB chief will take over.’ The ACC recently awarded the hosting rights of Asia Cup 2025 to India in which the tournament will be played in T20 format while the 2027 edition will be played in ODI format in Bangladesh. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chief is currently a little tense about the Champions Trophy. Pakistan has got the hosting rights of the Champions Trophy, which is to be played in February-March in 2025. There is suspense over whether India will go to Pakistan to participate in the Champions Trophy or not. The BCCI may once again demand a hybrid model from the ICC, which was done during the Asia Cup. However, this time the Pakistan Cricket Board does not seem to be ready for any kind of compromise. A message has even come from the Pakistan Cricket Board that if India does not come, then they will organize the Champions Trophy without India.
“I never played cricket for captaincy”- Big statement by Shaheen Afridi
Shaheen Afridi (Image Credit- Twitter X) While talking to the media in Karachi, Pakistan’s fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi said that at this time his priority is to win matches for Pakistan rather than wanting to become the captain. Actually Shaheen Afridi was appointed Pakistan’s T20I captain after Babar Azam left the captaincy. Meanwhile, Afridi has stressed that captaincy is not in my hands, performing well is in my hands. Shaheen Afridi gave a big statement regarding the captaincy controversy (Shaheen Afridi Captaincy) When Shaheen Afridi was asked about captaincy on Khel Shell, he said, ‘For me, Pakistan comes first, then my team and then lastly I myself. I don’t think much about the past, my job is to stay in the present. If your present is good, then you can be fully prepared for the future. Captaincy is not in my hands. Shaheen further said, ‘I have never played cricket for captaincy in my career, I honestly just want to play for Pakistan, which I will do.’ Under Afridi’s captaincy, Pakistan lost the series against New Zealand 1-4. At the same time, a few months before the 2024 T20 World Cup, the captaincy was taken away from Shaheen and given back to Babar. Under Babar’s captaincy, the Pakistan team could not progress beyond the league round. There were many reports regarding the T20 World Cup, which claimed that the Pakistan team was divided into factions. There was a lot of discord between Shaheen and captain Babar. There was also news about Shaheen that he had misbehaved with the support staff. At the same time, in the ODI World Cup 2023, the Pakistan team also failed to reach the semi-finals.

“We are very nice people”- Shoaib Malik requested Team India to come to Pakistan
Former Pakistan captain Shoaib Malik has urged the Indian cricket team to tour Pakistan for the Champions Trophy 2025. In fact, there has been no bilateral series played between India and Pakistan since 2013 and the two teams have faced each other only in tournaments like ICC tournaments or Asia Cup since then. With the Champions Trophy 2025 scheduled to be held in Pakistan, the Indian cricket team will have to travel to the country to participate in the cricket event. However, given the turbulent political relations between the two countries, it is almost certain that the Indian team will not travel to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy. At the same time, former Pakistan captain Shoaib Malik has requested the Indian team to come to Pakistan. We are good people- Shoaib Malik Malik reminded that the Pakistan team played in India in the ODI World Cup last year. Shoaib said that now India should come to us. Former all-rounder Shoaib told Cricket Pakistan, “Whatever differences there are between the two countries, that is a separate issue. It should be resolved separately. Politics should not come into sports. Last year the Pakistan team went to India and now this is a good opportunity for the Indian team as well. I think there are many players in the Indian team who have never played in Pakistan. So this will be a great opportunity for them. We are very nice people and we are very hospitable people. I am sure that the Indian team should definitely come.” PTI had recently reported that the schedule and format of the Champions Trophy were not discussed in the ICC’s annual meeting. The report said that the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has left the task of convincing India to come to Pakistan for the tournament to the ICC. Now it will be interesting to see whether the Indian team goes to Pakistan for this tournament or the Champions Trophy is played in a hybrid model.
If Babar Azam has to get back to his best form, then he should…: Shoaib Malik put forth his point of view on the Pakistani captain
According to Shoaib Malik, Babar Azam should now step down from captaincy and focus completely on his batting. Babar Azam & Shoaib Malik (Photo Source: X/Twitter) The performance of Pakistan team captain Babar Azam has been very poor for some time now. Not only this, the Pakistan team has also failed to show good performance under his captaincy. Let us tell you, in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, the Pakistan team failed to make it to the Super 8 under the captaincy of Babar Azam. Now former Pakistan batsman Shoaib Malik has given an important advice to Babar Azam. According to Shoaib Malik, Babar Azam should now step down from captaincy and focus completely on his batting. According to him, Babar Azam should understand that this was a bad time which is over now and even better days are yet to come. Shoaib Malik said during an interview with Cricket Pakistan, ‘There are ups and downs in life, especially when you are a cricketer from the subcontinent. Babar Azam should stay strong at this time. He should play as a player and step down from captaincy. This is my belief. Whenever Babar Azam plays as a player, he also performs tremendously for the team. But I believe that he should stay away from captaincy.’ Who should be appointed as Pakistan’s limited overs captain? Shoaib Malik believes that Fakhar Zaman should be given the captaincy of the Pakistan team in limited overs cricket. According to him, modern day cricket is being played at a very fast pace and Fakhar Zaman can play this role very well. Shoaib Malik further said, ‘If we talk about today’s aggressive cricket, then Fakhar Zaman should be given the captaincy of the limited overs team because he has the vision to lead the team.’ Let us tell you, Babar Azam was the highest run-scorer for Pakistan in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. He scored 122 runs in four matches at an average of over 40 and a strike rate of 101.66. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?
