Left-arm pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi is on the verge of assuming the T20 captaincy, potentially replacing Babar Azam. Simultaneously, Shan Masood is emerging as a formidable candidate to lead Pakistan's ODI and Test squads during the upcoming Australia tour.
The conclusive decision hinges on a meeting between Zaka Ashraf and Babar Azam, with further discussions anticipated within the management committee.
Babar Azam has come under scrutiny for his leadership and performance, especially post the World Cup 2023. Concerns have been voiced regarding his laidback approach, questionable bowling selections, and field settings.
With the prospect of a change in captaincy resonating, former players and netizens are sharing their opinions on who should assume the leadership role.
Pacer Muhammad Amir and social media users advocate for Shan Masood as a competent player to lead the team.
