Shan Masood to be Replaced as Pakistan’s Test Captain

According to recent reports, Shan Masood is set to be sacked as Pakistan’s Test captain following the team’s loss against England in the Multan Test. The Pakistan Cricket Board is reportedly searching for a replacement for Masood, who has not won a single Test at home.

The decision to replace Masood comes after Pakistan’s disappointing performance in the Multan Test, where they lost by seven wickets to England. Masood’s captaincy has been under scrutiny for some time now, with many questioning his ability to lead the team to victory.

Reports suggest that Saud Shakeel, Mohammad Rizwan, and Salman Ali Agha are potential candidates to replace Masood as Test captain. Shakeel, who is a left-handed batsman, has been in impressive form in domestic cricket and is seen as a future star of Pakistan cricket. Rizwan, on the other hand, is an experienced wicketkeeper-batsman who has been a regular member of the Pakistan team in recent years. Agha, meanwhile, is a talented all-rounder who has been making waves in domestic cricket.

Whoever is chosen to replace Masood as Test captain will have a tough job ahead of them. Pakistan has struggled in Test cricket in recent years, particularly at home, where they have not won a Test series since 2018. The new captain will need to inspire the team to perform better and work on improving their overall performance.

It remains to be seen who the Pakistan Cricket Board will choose as Masood’s replacement. However, one thing is clear – the team needs a change in leadership if they are to improve their performance in Test cricket.
