There has been a stir in the Pakistani team since the poor performance in the T20 World Cup 2024. There are speculations that there may be a big change in the Pakistani team soon. No one knows what this change will be, but former cricketer Basit Ali has made a big claim on social media. Basit Ali has posted a video in which he is claiming that the Test captain of the Pakistani team can be changed. Basil Ali claimed that the Pakistani team has started preparations for the Test series against Bangladesh and Mohammad Rizwan can become its captain.
Basit Ali said that the way Rizwan is giving statements in the press conference in Peshawar, it seems that the PCB has given him a free hand to speak. No centrally contracted player is allowed to speak like this. The way Rizwan is talking about the atmosphere of the team, it seems that he is going to take charge of the team. If Basit Ali is to be believed, Rizwan has also been entrusted with the task of removing the bitterness between Babar Azam and Shaheen Afridi. During the T20 World Cup, there were reports that the Pakistani team was not playing as a team. There were factions among the players. It was being told that there was no conversation between Shaheen and Babar.

However, Mohammad Rizwan admitted during a press conference in Peshawar that the atmosphere in the Pakistani team was not good. He also said that people are right to be angry with the Pakistani team considering the kind of performance they had. Rizwan also praised the PCB chief and even said that he can drop any player from the team, it is his right.
