The controversy going on in the Pakistan cricket team is not stopping. Sometimes the controversy starts in Pakistan regarding captaincy and sometimes the controversy is seen regarding vice-captaincy. Pakistan Cricket Board has announced its team for ICC T20 World Cup 2024. PCB has made it clear that Babar Azam will captain Pakistan. Apart from this, no player has been made the vice-captain in the team. After this, news was coming that PCB had offered vice-captaincy to Shaheen Afridi, but the fast bowler refused it. Now PCB itself has given a statement in this regard.
Where did this controversy start?
After the announcement of the Pakistan cricket team, a news about Shaheen Afridi was making a lot of headlines on social media. There were reports that the PCB wanted to make Afridi the vice-captain of the team, but Shaheen did not accept the PCB's offer. There was a lot of uproar on social media about this. Let us tell you that after Pakistan's crushing defeat in the ICC ODI World Cup 2023, Pakistan snatched the captaincy from Babar Azam and handed it over to Shaheen Afridi. But Shaheen also could not fulfill this responsibility well. In such a situation, before the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, the PCB once again changed the captain and Babar has been given the captaincy of the team again.
What did PCB say on this controversy?
PCB has given information about the vice-captaincy on its official Twitter handle. PCB said that no player has been offered vice-captaincy by the board. Our team does not need a vice-captain. PCB said that the selection committee held a meeting on this matter, but it was decided that no one would be made the vice-captain. Our team is looking forward to playing in the ICC T20 World Cup with full unity and commitment.
