New Delhi: Pakistan captain Babar Azam is in discussion about his captaincy these days. After losing the three-match Test series against England 3-0 at home and New Zealand 2-1 in the ODI series, questions have been raised time and again. This question has been put in front of him many times in the press conference as well, but he avoided it by saying that there is no plan to relinquish the captaincy at the moment. Meanwhile, former Pakistan veteran cricketer Basit Ali has given a big statement. Basit Ali has also revealed his choice for the all-format captain.
Babar will break the record if he leaves the captaincy to Azam
The former Pakistan cricketer believes that Babar can break big records once he steps down from the leadership role. He said- Babar Azam should give up the captaincy. If he relinquishes the captaincy, he will break all records and surpass the records made by the greats of the game. His captaincy is affecting his performance with the bat and he should focus on his batting. The former cricketer feels that star fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi should stake his claim as the next captain of the Pakistani team in the two purest formats. As far as most T20 formats are concerned, Ali insisted that all-rounder Shadab Khan should be the next captain.

Ali said, “Shaheen Afridi should be the captain of Pakistan. Shaheen Afridi can lead Pakistan in ODIs and Test cricket if he is fit. Shadab Khan could be Pakistan’s choice as captain in T20 cricket.” Babar Azam-led Pakistan will next take on New Zealand in a five-match T20I series in April.
