Ashraf clarified that the decision regarding Babar's captaincy does not rest solely with him.

 

"It is not my decision, there is a full technical committee in which Misbah-ul-Haq and Hafeez are present. We will move forward based on their advice. This decision is not the chairman's alone; we will proceed based on the consultation of technical experts who are also cricketers," Zaka Ashraf said.

He mentioned that there is a full technical committee that includes individuals like Misbah-ul-Haq and Mohammad Hafeez. The final decision on Babar Azam's captaincy will be based on their advice and consultation. Zaka Ashraf stressed that this decision is not his alone but will be made in collaboration with technical experts who are also former cricketers.

Ashraf also expressed his optimism for Babar's success, highlighting that Babar Azam is not only a great captain but also a talented player. He conveyed his hopes that Babar would lead Pakistan to victory and bring home a trophy for the country.

Currently, the Pakistani cricket team is in the fifth position in the ICC World Cup standings, with four wins and four losses. Their next match is scheduled against England on November 11th at Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
