LAHORE: Pakistan top batter Babar Azam has demanded the captaincy of all three formats from PCB.

According to the media report, the PCB offered Babar Azam white ball captaincy, but he refused, yet not accepted this offer.

While now the Babar Azam has demanded the captaincy of all three formats, the report states that Shaheen Afridi who recently became the T20 captain, will be removed from the team leadership.

It is pertinent to mention that due to bad performances in Asia and World Cup last year, Babar had announced to leave the captaincy after which Shaheen Shah was made the captain in T20 format.

In the PSL season 9, Shaheen Shah delivered bad performance for Lahore Qalanders and earlier T20 series with New Zealand also weakened their case.

Yesterday, Babar Azam has also met with Chairman PCB Mohsin Naqvi.
