"What Can I Say?" Pakistan Star Says 'Entire Pakistan' Was Shocked At Babar Azam Captaincy Re-Appointment
Pakistan all-rounder Imad Wasim has stated that the decision to reinstate Babar Azam as captain of Pakistan in white-ball cricket came as a surprise to not just everyone in the team, but everyone in the nation. After Pakistan failed to make the semi-finals of the 2023 ODI World Cup under his leadership, Babar Azam had resigned from captaincy in all formats, with pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi taking over. However, less than six months later, Babar was brought back as Pakistan captain right before the 2024 T20 World Cup, where Pakistan fared miserably, getting knocked out in the initial group phase. Imad expressed his shock at the decision of the selectors.
