By Saurabh Sharma June 24, 2020 • 22:01 PM View: 1342

Lahore, June 24: Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) CEO Wasim Khan stated Babar Azam is the team's future captain across formats as he has already shown that despite being relatively younger than his contemporaries, he handles pressure really well.

Azam was named Pakistan's T20 skipper while Azhar Ali was appointed as Test captain after Sarfaraz Ahmed was sacked in October last year. Azam was appointed as the ODI skipper last month.
