Babar Azam resigns after Gary Kirsten’s report gets leaked

New Delhi. Pakistan’s limited overs team captain Babar Azam recently resigned from his/her post. Babar was made captain for the second time. Babar was disillusioned with the captaincy after the report submitted to PCBAHI by limited overs head coach Gary Kirsten. According to cricket board insiders, it was clear that Babar wanted to step down from captaincy after the T20 World Cup in July. Pakistan’s performance in this World Cup played in America and West Indies was very poor.

A source close to the team told PTI, ‘Babar Azam was not happy with the comments and recommendations of Gary Kirsten and even assistant coach Azhar Mahmood and he/she felt that the team’s dismal performance was only due to him/her. he/she has been convicted. After parts of Kirsten’s report became public, Babar had indicated to the cricket board that he/she was not interested in continuing as captain.

The insider said Babar expressed his/her disappointment with board officials that the PCB did not consider his/her past performance and results. The board also did not show the necessary confidence and trust in him/her. According to sources, in his/her report to the board, Kirsten had discussed the atmosphere in the dressing room as well as the behavior and non-cooperation of some players in England and the T20 World Cup. Kirsten is not very impressed with Babar’s ability to handle pressure as a captain. According to him/her, after the mental stress and criticism since last year, his/her role in the team as a specialist batsman is more important.

The PCB is in no hurry to announce the name of the captain in the white-ball format. he/she has asked selector Asad Shafiq and some members of the selection committee to recommend the name after in-depth discussions. The source said, ‘Board Chairman Mohsin Naqvi has made it clear that he/she wants information about all official discussions by the selection committee. This will also include the votes of both the foreign head coaches of the team. This will maintain transparency and the clear reason for appointing the captain will be known.
