Pakistan’s performance at the Asia Cup did not live up to their expectations, and their World Cup 2023 ODI campaign is similarly disappointing. To make matters worse, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) president Zaka Ashraf revealed captain Babar Azam’s WhatsApp communication on national TV, adding fuel to the flames.
They leaked Babar Azam’s private WhatsApp chats?
Pakistani players ko milta kya hai ko unse itni expectations rakhte ho? This is disgusting, he still has three matches to play in this World Cup pic.twitter.com/8eHSG2oygT— Sushant Mehta (@SushantNMehta) October 29, 2023
Babar has been attempting to contact Zaka Ashraf, but the 71-year-old has not answered, according to recent revelations made by former Pakistani wicketkeeper Rashid Latif.
Numerous events are reported in the Pakistani media. Maybe they are misinformation. I am going to give you the real news that was postponed. The chairman hasn’t responded to Babar Azam’s attempts to reach them over the last two days. “He is messaging Usman Walha, the Director of International Cricket, and Salman Naseer, the Chief Operating Officer,” Latif stated in an interview.
In response to this accusation, Zaka Ashraf went so far as to divulge what is purported to be Babar’s WhatsApp conversation with Salman Naseer, the chief operating officer of Pakistan.
“I don’t answer his [Babar’s] call, he [Latif] claims. He hasn’t called me at all. “It is anticipated that the director of international cricket or the chief operating officer will have a conversation with the team captain,” Ashraf stated in a local TV station interview.
Pakistan lost four straight matches after winning their first two matches in the ODI World Cup 2023, and their chances of making the semifinals are all but gone.
On Tuesday, October 31, at Eden Gardens in Kolkata, Babar, whose position as captain is allegedly questionable, will need to motivate his team. With just one victory in their first six games, Shakib Al Hasan’s team has likewise had a dismal campaign so far.
