Babar Azam Reappointed as Pakistan White-Ball Captain

In a significant leadership change, Babar Azam returns to captain Pakistan's white-ball cricket team ahead of the T20 World Cup.

Babar Azam has been reappointed as the captain of Pakistan's white-ball cricket team, replacing Shaheen Shah Afridi.
Azam's leadership comes ahead of Pakistan's participation in the T20 World Cup scheduled for June in the USA and the West Indies.
Under Afridi's brief captaincy, Pakistan faced a 4-1 defeat in a T20 series against New Zealand.
The decision was made following unanimous recommendations from the PCB’s selection committee, with the new chairman Mohsin Naqvi endorsing the change.
Pakistan is set to play a series of international T20 matches against New Zealand, Ireland, and England before the World Cup.
