3 Captaincy choices for Pakistan in T20Is if Babar Azam steps down

1. Shaheen Afridi

Pakistan's express pacer  Shaheen Afridi is another possible contender for the leadership role. The left-arm seamer is Pakistan's main bowler across all three formats of the game. 

Coming from an injury, the 22-year-old has not been at his absolute best in the T20 World Cup, but he can bamboozle any batting line-up on his day. To note, Shaheen bowled a match-winning spell for his side's famous victory against India during the 2021 T20 World Cup.

Speaking about his numbers in T20I cricket, the left-arm seamer has played 44 games and has already scalped 51 wickets at a decent average of 24.29. He bowls at a good economy of 7.63 and can nail his yorkers in the death overs.
