Inzamam-ul-Haq Backs Babar Azam To Lead Pakistan Side In All Three Formats Of The Game
The Men in Green did not make a lot of changes to their ODI squad as the board declared the final set of players who will be taking part in the Asia Cup 2023.
Inzamam-ul-Haq, the newly made chief selector of the Pakistan cricket team has lauded Babar Azam’s captaincy. There were a lot of questions over Babar’s leadership as the team lost the finals of the Asia Cup and T20 World Cup last year but then the PCB does not want to remove him from the captaincy of the national team. The former Pakistan legend Inzamam confirmed the same after disclosing Pakistan’s squad for the upcoming Asia Cup.
Talking about the same, the former Pakistan skipper said that Babar is doing great work and he will be supporting him in all three formats of the game.
“See, a lot of changes in captaincy is not good. I think Babar is doing great captaincy, and when I was chief selector before, Sarfaraz Ahmed was not captain of all three formats, but he became captain of all three formats later. So, I feel, there should be one captain of all three formats if he plays in all three formats. So, he should know how he has to take his players forward. But, this captaincy doesn’t come under my domain,” Inzamam said while addressing the press as quoted by Hindustan Times.
The Men in Green did not make a lot of changes to their ODI squad as the board declared the final set of players who will be taking part in the Asia Cup 2023. Talking about the Pakistan team, Inzamam added that they will closely assess the players in the tournament and then they will take a call on their World Cup squad.
“We have selected players with the focus also on the World Cup and hope that the team brings laurels to the country,” Inzamam added.
Earlier, the Pakistan Cricket Board announced the appointment of former Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq as the country's men's chief selector. Also, this is the second time that the former Pakistan batter will hold the office as the chief selector of the Pakistan men's cricket team.
