Extending his woeful run in the Super 12 stage of the T20 World Cup 2022 on Thursday, Babar Azam played another forgetful knock as the talismanic batter of the Green Army was dismissed for cheap in Pakistan's must-win match against South Africa at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). Entering the T20 World Cup as the top-ranked batter in white-ball cricket, Babar has failed to fire for Pakistan in the Super 12 stage of the ICC event.

KARACHI: Former Test cricketer Sarfraz Nawaz has demanded that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif remove Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Ramiz Raja immediately.
In a statement on Tuesday, he said Raja is not capable of running an institution like PCB.

"Every Pakistani is disappointed over the surprising and shameful defeat of Pakistan's cricket team against Zimbabwe in T20 World Cup," he added.

The former fast bowler said Raja had shown naivety in his proposals of drop-in-pitches and four-nation T20 tournament. He has damaged the career of upcoming cricketers by ignoring the development programme at the NCA, Sarfraz said.

Raja has failed to resume club cricket and no interest has been shown in organising elections of cricket associations, he said.

Pakistan captain Babar Azam responded to the ongoing controversy surrounding his captaincy on Thursday, after the comments made by a senior journalist on a TV show.

During the press conference following Pakistan's seven-wicket victory over Bangladesh, Babar was asked about dealing with criticism about his leadership in light of a viral video in which anchorperson Aftab Iqbal criticized his performance.

"I don't know who you are talking about. I don't even know him," the Pakistan captain told the reporter. "See, such things happen in every situation, whether you lose or win. We remain ready for such things after a bad performance and it does not bother us," maintained Babar.
