The performance of the Pakistan cricket team has been very poor since the ODI World Cup 2023. It was also eliminated from the group stage in the 2024 T20 World Cup. During this time, a lot of upheaval was also seen in Pakistan cricket. Babar Azam surprised everyone by resigning from the captaincy of the Pakistan team in all three formats after the ODI World Cup 2023. But after some time he was once again made the captain of the white-ball (ODI and T20). Now his fellow player Imad Wasim has given a big statement on this decision of the selectors.
Imad Wasim's big statement on Babar becoming the captain again.After Babar Azam left the captaincy, Shaheen Afridi was made the captain of the T20 team. The team could not perform well under the captaincy of Shaheen Afridi. The team had to face a 4-1 defeat in the T20 series against New Zealand. Babar was made the captain only after this series. Imad Wasim, in a recent interview, said that he was absolutely surprised by the decision to make Babar the captain again.

Imad Wasim said, 'Yes, I was surprised, but what can I say, it was the selectors' decision, whatever they thought, they must have found it to be the best option, after which they selected the captain. I was definitely surprised and to be honest, not only me but everyone was surprised.'
However, once again Babar Azam's captaincy is in danger. It is believed that Babar Azam, the captain of Pakistan's white ball cricket team, may have to lose the captaincy again. The biggest reason for this is that Babar has not been made the captain of the Champions ODI Cup. Mohammad Rizwan, Shaheen Afridi, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Harris, and Saud Shakeel are playing as captains in this domestic tournament. According to reports, Mohammad Rizwan can be made the captain of the Pakistan team in place of Babar in the coming time.
