'Give Him A Decent Run': Ponting On Pakistan's New White-ball Captain Rizwan

By IANS News November 07, 2024 • 16:42 PM View: 749

Pakistan Cricket Board: Former Australia skipper Ricky Ponting feels that Pakistan's newly-appointed white-ball captain Mohammad Rizwan should get a "decent run" at the role to showcase his leadership skills in the formats.

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) appointed Rizwan as captain of the white-ball teams last month after Babar Azam quit the role for the second time following the early exit from the T20 World Cup 2024.

Rizwan's first assignment as captain saw Pakistan lose against ODI World champions Australia in the series opener in Melbourne last week. However, Ponting warned Pakistan's management against any impulsive decision regarding the leadership role.
