Babar Azam resigns as captain of Pakistan cricket team

Babar Azam Steps Down as Pakistan Cricket Team Captain to Focus on Personal Growth

Star cricketer Babar Azam announced his decision to step down as captain of Pakistan’s cricket team, choosing to prioritize his personal growth and focus more on his performance as a player.

Azam shared the news on social media platform X on Tuesday, revealing that he had informed the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and team management of his decision last month.

The accomplished batsman explained that his decision to relinquish the white-ball captaincy stemmed from a desire to dedicate more time to his own development and enhance his contributions on the field.

Azam had been reappointed as captain for Pakistan’s T20I and ODI squads by the PCB on March 31, following a successful stint in leadership. However, he now steps aside after previously concluding his long tenure as captain in November 2023.

Azam’s leadership will be missed, but his decision allows him to concentrate on his playing career, which remains crucial to Pakistan’s success on the international stage.
