Following Pakistan’s World Cup 2023 debacle, there was massive pressure on Babar Azam to resign from captaincy and the 29-year-old <a href="https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/babar-azam-resigns-as-pakistan-captain-in-all-formats-1408942#:~:text=Babar%20Azam%20has%20resigned%20as,to%20lead%20Pakistan%20in%202019." target="_blank" rel="noopener">stepped down</a> as the skipper across all formats on November 15. Following this, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has appointed Shaheen Afridi as the T20I) captain while Shan Masood has been given the Test reins.

Pakistan’s ODI captaincy post is still vacant and the PCB won’t be in a hurry to select their new skipper as the Men in Green will play their next one-day match in November 2024 in Australia. After Babar’s resignation, some names are favourites to receive the captaincy baton.

Here are the three players who can get Pakistan’s ODI captaincy:

Fakhar Zaman has been active in ODI cricket since June 2017 and in his six-year career, he has scored 3492 runs with 11 tons and 16 fifties for his side in 82 ODIs. The southpaw is the only <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/pakistan/">Pakistan </a>stalwart to score a double hundred in ODI cricket, with his 210-run knock against Zimbabwe at Queens Sports Club.

Noting the 33-year-old’s international experience, the Pakistan team management might believe in him for the leadership role. Back in 2019, Fakhar led his Pakistan Super League (PSL) side Lahore Qalandars in five games of the competition, in which his team won only one and lost four. His captaincy record isn’t decent but his batting credentials and experience is something that can draw the PCB’s attention.

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/social-tracker-cricket/shaheen-afridi-expresses-his-gratification-after-being-named-as-pakistan-captain-for-t20i-format/" title="Shaheen Afridi" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shaheen Afridi</a> took 18 wickets in nine matches at an economy of 5.93 in Pakistan’s dismal World Cup campaign, but he was criticised for failing to deliver at crunch moments, especially the powerplay. Despite his lackluster performance, the speedster has got the T20I captaincy mantle for Pakistan.&nbsp;

The PCB will expect the star bowler to dominate as a leader in the next few months so that the Green Army succeeds in lifting the distinguished T20 World Cup trophy in 2024. Shaheen has proven his captaincy skills in PSL, winning two consecutive titles for Lahore Qalandars in 2022 and 2023.&nbsp;

Talking about his overall captaincy record in the league, the 23-year-old has a victory percentage of 70, with 17 wins and seven losses in 25 matches. If Shaheen justifies his role as a skipper in the upcoming days, the PCB will not hesitate in appointing him as the skipper of the ODI team as well. &nbsp;

Mohammad Rizwan was the leading run-getter for the Men in Green in the shambolic 2023 campaign, with 395 runs in eight innings of nine contests. In Pakistan’s highest World Cup chase against Sri Lanka in Hyderabad, he chipped in with his unbeaten 131 off 121.

Noting the wicketkeeper-batter’s superb performance, a lot of Pakistan cricket fans were expecting the PCB to declare Rizwan as their white-ball captain. In the next 12 months, the team management will keep an eye on the 31-year-old’s performance and if he remains consistent with his bat, his name can’t be ruled out to lead the ODI side.

Rizwan has a fabulous captaincy record for Multan Sultans in PSL. Under his captaincy, the team became the champions in the league’s 2021 edition. Captaining Sultans since 2021, he has accumulated 24 wins and 12 losses in 36 matches.&nbsp;

Following Pakistan’s World Cup 2023 debacle, there was massive pressure on Babar Azam to resign from captaincy and the 29-year-old stepped down as the skipper across all formats on November 15.
