Typical Of Pakistan To Change Captains Frequently, Says Ian Chappell Ahead Of Side’s Tour Of Australia
ODI World Cup: Legendary Australia cricketer Ian Chappell said it is "typical" of Pakistan to change their captains frequently, ahead of the side’s three-match Test tour of Australia happening next month.
Following a fifth-place finish in the 2023 Men’s ODI World Cup and huge criticism from across all quarters back home, Babar Azam stepped down as Pakistan’s all-format skipper, with opener Shan Masood named Test captain.
Masood is Pakistan’s ninth Test captain since 2009, as Pakistan play three Tests against Australia in Perth (December 14-18), Melbourne (December 26-30) and Sydney (January 3-7, 2024), having never won a series in the country.
