'Let Somebody Else Have A Headache': David Lloyd Backs Babar's Resignation As Pakistan Captain

By IANS News November 23, 2023 • 16:34 PM View: 866

Pakistan Cricket Board: Former England cricketer David Lloyd backs Babar Azam’s decision to relinquish Pakistan captaincy in all formats and said the 29-year-old should focus more on his batting.

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) asked Babar to quit over the team's debacle in the ICC Men's ODI World Cup in India, which he accepted after meeting with chief selector Zaka Ashraf.

Lloyd highlighted captaincy's role on the field as the simpler aspect while dealing with the “political aspects” and fallout from defeats can be chaotic.
