Although there is no room to question the batsman Babar Azam, there is often a storm of criticism about the captain Babar Azam. Many former Pakistan batsmen do not want one of the best batsmen of all time to lead the team. However, despite the criticism, many are on his side. Former wicketkeeper-batter Rashid Latif is one of them. He claims that some former star cricketers of the country cannot accept Babar’s leadership, but rather his authority in the team. Babur’s failure as a captain is not very few. But he also has some remarkable achievements to speak for. One of which was defeating India for the first time on the World Cup stage. Babar has shown what no other Indian captain could do. He has also led the team to the semi-final and final in two consecutive T20 World Cups. In the final of the last Twenty20 World Cup, Pakistan became the runner-up after losing against England. Criticism continues despite such success. After Nazam Shetty became the chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), the interim selection panel took over and decided to remove Babar from the leadership.

The delegation led by Shahid Afridi, however, ultimately failed to remove Babar. However, Pakistan has not yet moved away from the idea of ​​separate leadership for limited-overs and long-range cricket. Pakistan’s former wicket-keeper batsman Rashid Latif claims that many of the former are afraid of Babar’s power. So they want to remove him from the captaincy. He said, ‘I think the problem is not with Babar’s captaincy but with his power. It seems that Babar has a power struggle with some of Pakistan’s former stars, which they see as discrimination. They have united their associates on the board to remove him (Babur) from the leadership.
