Pakistan may reintroduce Babar Azam as captain for the forthcoming five-match T20I series against New Zealand.

All is well in Pakistan cricket, as Shaheen Afridi is considering quitting as T20I captain after being frustrated by the Pakistan Cricket Board's lack of involvement in the team's future planning.

Pakistan has a lengthy history of revolving captains. This appeared to come to an end in recent years, when Babar Azam, a modern-day cricket legend, took over as captain. However, following his resignation following Pakistan's poor withdrawal from the ODI World Cup in November 2023, when they failed to reach the semi-finals, the captaincy has been called into question once more. Now, it appears Babar Azam may make a surprise return to leadership again!
