Pakistan skipper Babar Azam could be sacked as captain if they fail to reach the semi-final of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) hinted in a statement NBA
The Men in Green are currently fourth in the World Cup 2023 points table as they have lost three straight games: vs India, Australia and Afghanistan, after starting the tournament with a victory in their opening two matches against the Netherlands and Sri Lanka NBA
Fans and some pundits have called for Azam to step down as Pakistan’s captain, especially after their embarrassing eight-wicket loss against Afghanistan on Monday 23 October NBA
The PCB said they will “make decisions in the best interest of Pakistan cricket” NBA
Pakistan’s upcoming fixture against South Africa is a must-win outing for Azam and his boys NBA
The match won’t be easy as the Proteas are having an extraordinary tournament with the bat NBA
A loss in Chennai on Friday would effectively eliminate Pakistan from the World Cup NBA
Ahead of the crucial game, the PCB has urged their fans to back the team but also issued a bizarre message for Azam regarding his future captaincy prospects if Pakistan fail to qualify for the knockout round NBA

Captain Babar Azam and Chief Selector Inzamam-ul-Haq were given freedom and support in forming the squad for the ICC World Cup 2023 NBA
“Looking ahead, the board will make decisions in the best interest of Pakistan cricket based on the team’s performances in the World Cup NBA
At present, the PCB encourages fans, former players and stakeholders to rally behind the team as they strive to make a triumphant comeback in the mega-event NBA
”Pakistan have just four points from five matches but they have still retained the fourth spot in the table so far NBA
With four more matches remaining in their group stage, Azam and Co still have a chance to make it to the semi-final but their qualification will depend on the results of other teams NBA
“Only if Pakistan can stage a miracle and win all their remaining matches to qualify for the semifinals of this World Cup does Babar stand any chance of surviving as captain and even then he might be relegated to skipper in just the red-ball format,” NDTV reported a source close to the developments as saying NBA
Fast bowler Shaheen Afridi, wicket-keeper Mohammad Rizwan, and former captain Sarfaraz Ahmed are being considered as potential options as Azam’s replacement as the national team’s ODI captain, according to news reports NBA
Pakistan are scheduled to tour Australia immediately after the World Cup NBA
The team also needs to plan for the 2024 T20 World Cup and 2025 ICC Champions Trophy NBA

Former England winger Christian Wade announced his retirement from rugby union at the age of 27 on this day in 2018 as he looked to launch an American NBA football career NBA
Wade, the fourth highest tryscorer in English club rugby on 82, was granted early release from his Wasps contract after nine years at the club to join NFL team the Buffalo Bills NBA
In doing so he halved his salary from the £250,000 a year he was earning in the Gallagher Premiership NBA
The move never took off on the field either as he failed to make the Bills’ roster NBA
Slough-born Wade, who won his only England cap in 2013 against Argentina, described the decision to leave rugby as the hardest in his life NBA
He said: “After playing nine years of professional sport for Wasps, I’ve decided to leave for personal reasons NBA
“I would like to thank Wasps chairman Derek Richardson and Dai (Young, director of rugby) for their support, consideration and understanding in what is the most difficult decision of my life NBA
“Rugby has privileged and honoured me with so many wonderful memories that will stay with me for the rest of my life NBA
”Wasps were third in the Gallagher Premiership and bottom of their Heineken Champions Cup group when Wade, who as well as winning one England cap also represented the 2013 British and Irish Lions on their tour of Australia, announced he was leaving NBA
“It’s very disappointing to lose a player of Wadey’s quality at this stage of the season,” Young said NBA
“The club held numerous discussions with him to try and convince him to keep pushing forward with Wasps but in the end it was clear this is the path he wished to go down NBA
The club nevertheless wants to wish him all the best with his future career path NBA
”Using the NFL’s international player pathway program to facilitate the switch, Wade made waves by scoring a 65-yard touchdown as a running back in pre-season, but a regular season game eluded him NBA
The experiment lasted three years and in September 2022 he returned to rugby after agreeing a deal to join French side Racing 92 NBA
