    The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has reportedly made the decision to replace Babar Azam as captain of the national team in both the One Day International (ODI) and Test formats.

    Inevitably Ramiz Raja is sacked as Pakistan Cricket Board’s chairman….
    Babar Azam as captain of Pakistan should be next to go, just to preserve his own form to start with, let alone get his team winning again…!!

    This comes amid rumors that Babar’s underperformance as captain and the team’s lack of success under his leadership may have played a major role in the decision. During his captaincy, the Men in Green lost three test series at home and lost two finals.

    Sarfaraz Ahmed To Replace Babar Azam

    Sarfaraz Ahmed, who recently returned to Test cricket after a four-year absence and performed exceptionally well, is expected to take over as captain in the Test format, while vice-captain Shan Masood is likely to become captain in the ODI format.

    Babar had a wonderful run with the bat in 2022, being the leading run-getter across all formats. However, Babar will continue to captain the team in the Twenty20 International format.

    The PCB has undergone several changes recently, including the reappointment of Najam Sethi as the new chairman and the hiring of Shahid Afridi as interim chief selector. Pakistan may opt for different captains in all three formats, according to reports.
