According to Pakistan’s news channel Geo News, the reins of white ball cricket captaincy are most likely to go into the hands of Mohammad Rizwan. Even though Shaheen Afridi held the post of Pakistan captain for some time. He was not very successful in terms of leadership and the team’s performance was poor. Therefore, he was removed from the captaincy and Babar was once again made the captain in the T20 World Cup. Babar Azam also left the captaincy after the ODI World Cup 2023.
