Pakistani captain, Babar Azam, has disregarded speculation posed by veteran all-rounder, Shoaib Malik, who remarked that the current team captain doesn’t have any control over team selection.
Malik’s comments came in ringing after Pakistan’s shocking defeat at the hands of Zimbabwe when the two sides met in the second T20I at Harare last week.

In a discussion with reporters, Babar urged for the underlined “debate to end now. The same thing is repeated in every press conference that I don’t have any control over selection. You can see on the field that I handle everything. I decide the playing XI. Management gives their input. I know my responsibilities as a captain”.
In response to Malik’s claim that the team needs a new coach, Azam replied that he doesn’t have any issues with the current Head Coach, Misbah ul Haq. “I don’t have any problem with the coach. This is the domain of PCB. Team management is fully supporting every player, so I am happy”, he added.

Shoaib malik is not good captain.but babar azam is playing very well.and inshaallah team will be improvement.just middle batsman are not play well.and bowler are excellent and batsman will improve middle area than all team is well.but i know babar azam is great captain.
I am think Shoaib Malik is right.
Shoaib Malik is and was very talented batsman and in my opinion he was one of them who plays in pressure conditions very bravely.His comment about the likeness in the management is true to some extent.However King Babar is a STAR player ,not just of Pakistan but of the WORLD. Only requirement is the time for King 👑 Babar to become an excellent caption. Criticism is always there so do not make it controversial.
Shoaib Malik is right….Babar can’t open up
