Former cricketer backs Mohammad Rizwan as future Pakistan captain

Sep 16, 2024 12:37 PM

Former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali has thrown his weight behind wicketkeeper batter Mohammad Rizwan as the next captain of the national white-ball team.

The current white-ball captain Babar Azam has been under fire following Pakistan’s lacklustre ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 campaign in June, where they got knocked out from the group stage.Many fans and critics have attributed the Green Shirts’ disastrous performance to Babar’s captaincy and called for his removal as captain.Meanwhile, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has decided to hold a high-profile meeting on September 22, dubbed “Connection Camp”, to discuss the future of the national cricket team as well as all-format captaincy.Basit Ali, in a video on his YouTube channel, gave his opinion on the ongoing speculations about Mohammad Rizwan replacing Babar Azam as the captain.He highlighted Rizwan’s leadership skills, which are on full display during the ongoing Champions One-Day Cup, where the wicketkeeper is leading Markhors..“The way Mohammad Rizwan led the side, he proved there is no better skipper than him. He has shown it with his captaincy said Basit Ali.

I think it's great that Basit Ali supports Mohammad Rizwan as the potential next captain of the national white-ball team! It's always exciting to see new leadership in sports. Rizwan must have some impressive skills and qualities to have Basit Ali's backing. Rizwan must be making quite an impression to be considered for such a significant role.
