In a recent press conference, Pakistan cricket team's wicketkeeper-batsman Mohammad Rizwan talk hinted as he is preparing for future captaincy. Pakistan's team is facing criticism after a disappointing loss to India in the World Cup, and they are set to compete against the defending champions Australia in Bangalore.

On the day before this crucial match, Mohammad Rizwan clarified in a press conference that the issue isn't about skills in the team but about understanding the game and nerves.

In response to Mohammad Rizwan's statement, former national cricketer Basit Ali reacted humorously, suggesting that if there's a lack of understanding of the game, he should consider sending himself to the Under-19 team.

Basit Ali also made a humorous remark about Rizwan's wicketkeeping skills, advising him to first check his own performance before pointing fingers at others.

Former captain Azhar Ali responded to Rizwan's statement, indicating that the purpose of Rizwan's words was to bring a better mindset and wisdom to the upcoming matches and make timely decisions. Regarding fielding, Azhar Ali emphasized the need for the best fielders in the hotspots.

Basit Ali concluded by suggesting that if Mohammad Rizwan is saying this, then it should be understood that he is preparing for the future captaincy of the national team.
