Pakistan could not make the knockout stage of the 50-overs World Cup last year, which prompted Babar Azam to relinquish captaincy. Pace spearhead Shaheen Afridi was subsequently put in charge of the T20 squad, while Shan Masood was named the test captain. Babar will begin his new stint with a five-match home T20 series against New Zealand next month but his leadership will face a tougher test in the 20-overs World Cup in June.
