Babar Azam was appointed Pakistan's white-ball captain as he replaced fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi as the T20 captain.
The pacer has been removed after just one bad series Pakistan lost 1-4 to New Zealand in January.
Just two months left before the T20 World Cup Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has re-appointed star batter Babar as the captain. The 29-year-old stepped down from captaincy from all formats after the ODI World Cup last year where Pakistan performed miserably.
PCB informed the decision on X (formerly Twitter) and they wrote:
"Babar Azam appointed as white-ball captain. Following a unanimous recommendation from the PCB’s selection committee, Chairman PCB Mohsin Naqvi has appointed Babar Azam as white-ball (ODI and T20I) captain of the Pakistan men's cricket team."
Since PCB announced Babar's appointment as captain, fans have expressed their opinions and reaction on social media on being 'unfair' with Shaheen Afridi.
While many have shown support for the PCB decision many have expressed their rage and anger for the unfair decision taken against Shaheen Shah Afridi.
