Lahore: Pakistan captain Babar Azam is regarded as one of the best batsmen in contemporary cricket. One of the players who is good at finding runs in all three formats. The question is whether the captaincy in all three formats affects the performance of the star even when he is not doing well at the moment. Therefore, former player Javed Miandad has requested that the Pakistan Cricket Board should be ready to talk to Babar in this regard.

“Babar Azam is a world class batsman. But the Pakistan Cricket Board should ask the star if the captaincy is affecting him. If he is not able to perform well with both batting and captaincy then he should be ready to remove the captaincy role from him. However, the board should make it clear that Babar is their preferred choice for the captaincy. Playing for Pakistan should be the first thing in the mind of the players. When that happens, you can perform well in batting, bowling and fielding. Pakistani players should understand that they are in the playing eleven because they are good players. Miandad said that the performance demanded by the competition should be brought out.

Today is a crucial match for Babar

Pakistan and England are currently playing a seven-match T20I series under Babar’s captaincy. Both the teams are currently 3-3. Today’s match in Lahore will decide the series winners. Babar Azam has scored 3122 runs in 42 Tests, 4664 runs in 92 ODIs and 3035 runs in 86 T20Is for Pakistan.
