R Ashwin feels “sorry” for Pakistan amid musical chairs over captaincy ft. Babar Azam

Ravichandran Ashwin lamented over the sad state of affairs in Pakistan cricket following Babar Azam resigning as the side's white-ball captain once again

India cricket team spinner Ravichandran Ashwin feels sorry for the Pakistan cricket team, given their present state. The Men in Green saw yet another resignation from Babar Azam as the white-ball skipper, just before the side embarks on a hectic schedule featuring ODIs and T20Is. The veteran spinner called out the Pakistan’s tendency to keep shuffling captains and how it affected the team.

Ashwin feels “sorry” for Pakistan

I am speaking the truth when I say that the current state of Pakistan cricket and the phase they are going through makes me feel a little sorry. Because some of the most exceptional cricketers have played for Pakistan, and it was such a great team,” Ashwin  said in a video.

Their whole musical chairs situation is truly something. The music keeps playing, and they just think about grabbing a chair; that’s how it feels,” he added.

Babar Azam resigns as Pakistan skipper, yet again!

Babar Azam decided to step down as Pakistan’s white-all captain just months after being reinstated in the position. The star batter, who’s current form is miserable, took over the reins from Shaheen Afridi before the T20 World Cup only to lead the side to a group stage exit at the marquee event. Babar Azam had earlier resigned as the skipper in 2023 following what was another debacle for the team in the ODI World Cup.

While reports claim that Babar Azam was asked to stay on as the ODI skipper and he refused, the call to replace Babar as skipper was already growing louder.
