There is an uproar in Pakistan cricket at the moment. Pakistan team is being criticized a lot after its poor performance in the ODI World Cup-2023. This team could not go to the semi-finals this time also. After this, team captain Babar Azam was heavily criticized and there were reports that PCB has decided to remove him from the captaincy of ODI and T20 and retained the captaincy of the Test team. But meanwhile Babar Azam took a decision and resigned from the captaincy in all three formats. After this, Pakistan Cricket Board has announced the new captain of T20 and Test team.
PCB has tweeted that Shaheen Shah Afridi has been made the new captain of T20. The captaincy of the Test team has been given to Shan Masood. However, PCB has not announced the captain of the ODI team. PCB has also taken a big decision regarding the coaching staff. The coaching staff that was in the World Cup will now go to NCA and now new coaching staff will be recruited.
Masood has been a flop
Shaheen’s bowling is discussed everywhere. He also captains Lahore Qalandars in Pakistan Super League and has won the title twice in a row under his captaincy, but Masood could not leave much impact in Tests. Masood’s average in tests is only 28. Masood has played 30 test matches for Pakistan and scored 1597 runs at an average of 28.51. But PCB has expressed confidence in Masood and has handed him the captaincy of the team.
