"You Think New Captain Will Bring Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli?": Ex-Pakistan Star Lashes Out At PCB

Former wicketkeeper batter Kamran Akmal urged Pakistan Cricket Board's (PCB) top brass not to make any captaincy changes and suggested that the players should get the basic right to avoid blunders. Last week, reports started to surface that Babar Azam could lose the white-ball captaincy. Sources told Geo News that wicketkeeper batter Mohammad Rizwan has become the top contender to replace Babar Azam for the white ball captaincy. With Pakistan set to host the ICC Champions Trophy next year, Akmal questioned the need to change the captain. He stated that the change should have been imposed when Pakistan had an underwhelming campaign in last year's ODI World Cup and this year's T20 World Cup.

Out-of-favour Pakistan cricket team batter Ahmed Shehzad has decided not to play the Champions Cup, the nation's 50-over domestic cricket tournament which will kick off in Faisalabad on September 12.

He also accused the PCB of favouritism, making "false promises and doing injustice to domestic players". "With a heavy heart, I've decided not to play in the Domestic Cricket Champions Cup," wrote Shehzad in a post on X.

"Be Afraid Of God": Ex-Pakistan Star Defends Babar Azam, Takes Swipe At PCB

Former Pakistan pacer Tanveer Ahmed has thrown his weight behind star batter Babar Azam amid criticism over his poor form. Babar managed scores of 0 and 22 in the first Test against Bangladesh, a match which Pakistan lost by 10 wickets. While Babar's last century came on 30th August 2023 against Nepal in Multan during the Asia Cup, the player has been on the receiving end of some harsh criticism, especially with Pakistan failing to win games on home soil. However, Tanveer has defended Babar, and instead lashed out at the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for making the star batter a scapegoat amid Pakistan's winless streak in the World Test Championship (WTC).
