‘Surprise captain announcement on the way,’ claims journalist
The announcement for the Pakistan cricket team’s white-ball captain is expected today.
Former Pakistan wicketkeeper-batsman Rashid Latif hinted that the future of the team will be decided after an important meeting between Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi and Muhammad Rizwan.
However, Sports Journalist Shoaib Jatt has posted on X (Formerly Twitter), “Surprise CAPTAIN announcement on the way”, hitting toward something surprising.
Muhammad Rizwan is a strong candidate for captaincy, but it will be decided after he meets with Mohsin Naqvi. Shadab Khan, Saud Shakeel and Salman Ali Agha were also strong candidates along with Rizwan.

The non-voting members include Azhar Mehmood, Bilal Afzal, Nadeem Khan, and Usman Wahla.
However, PCB has not included the captain and coach in the selection committee.
