– Shadab Khan rallies behind Babar Azam –
Earlier this month, Pakistan all-rounder Shadab Khan rallied on Thursday behind former captain Babar Azam.
Speaking on a private television channel, Khan said: "It is unfair to merely hold the skipper accountable for the World Cup debacle. Our team had the capability to power to the World Cup final. But unfortunately, we could not deliver in all the departments of the game in the tournament."
The Islamabad United cricketer admitted that he could not deliver for the team with the bowl in the World Cup.
