Sarfaraz Should Remain Pakistan Captain Across All Formats: Abdul Qadir

Former Pakistan legendary bowler Abdul Qadir has suggested Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to retain the services of Sarfaraz Ahmed as captain of all formats and groom Babar Azam as his replacement.

Speaking to media, Qadir emphasized that the captain alone should not be held responsible for failing to reach the semi-finals of the World Cup.

Sarfraz is a match-winning captain and has shown his fighting spirit several times. I think he should continue leading in all the three formats.

However, Qadir added that Babar Azam should be groomed as the future captain and he should be made deputy to Sarfaraz in the meanwhile.

Sarfraz may take the decision to retire after two to three years and till that time Babar will be able to handle the pressure of captaincy. I believe Babar has to learn a lot before leading the national side. It is time for his grooming and that can be better done by making him Sarfaraz’s deputy.

In order to improve Pakistan’s batting woes, Abdul Qadir said that PCB should appoint Mohsin Hasan Khan as the batting coach. He said that Mohsin is a qualified candidate who has managerial experience as well.

I believe that if you have specialized batting, bowling and fielding coaches then there is no need to appoint a head over them. Mohsin Khan can be the ideal candidate for the batting coach.

He further added that Pakistan has an abundance of ex-cricketers who are qualified to help the current crop of players through their vast experience.

We have several greats like Zaheer Abbas, Javed Miandad, Saeed Anwar, Younis Khan, Muhammad Yousaf, Sarfraz Nawaz and Shoaib Akhtar. They are best known for their skills and expertise. They are highly patriotic people, who can pass their skills to the current players with utmost dedication. I think they must be given the chance to serve in this capacity.

  • Kick out sarfraz asap. No need for him now. Even imad is better captain than him but even imad should not be captain of ODI, maybe t2o

  • Abdul Qadir ko chiye kisi ache doctor se elaj karwana chiye. Kia pata sarfraz he ise elaj ke paise dera ho hahaha

  • SARFRAZ does not deserve to be in the team even, cant bat, cant speak, drops catches, shouts at other players on live TV, and his tummy is like pregnant woman. Qadir is crazy and needs medicine.
