Pakistan Set To Appoint New All-Format Captain. It's Not Babar Azam Or Mohammad Rizwan

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is expected to make some sweeping changes in its national team set-up with Salman Ali Agha in line to become all-format captain, replacing Shan Masood as the skipper of the Test side. Besides the change in captaincy, the board will also be announcing the formation of an "observatory" committee after Eid holidays, a concept meant to keep a close watch on cricket developments including in the national team and forward recommendations to the board's chairman. A source in the board said that former captain Sarfaraz Ahmed and ex-pacer Sikander Bakht had been called to Lahore for a meeting. "The two were informed about the decision to form the observatory committee and offered positions on it," the source said. "Some other players will also be on this committee." He said PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi, after discussions with his close aides including new white ball head coach Mike Hesson, is also considering redefining the role of the national selection committee. "Either there will be changes in the current selection committee which would continue to work with the Pakistan team management or a new selection set-up would be announced with prime focus on looking and finding talent from domestic and age group cricket," the source said. Naqvi, the source added, wanted to see things move forward with the right people in the right positions and with the coach and captain given powers to select the teams. There is also a move to give more responsibility to Salman Ali Agha who is currently the national T20 captain and the board is contemplating replacing Shan Masood as the Test skipper when they announce the new head coach of the red ball format. Pakistan's next Test assignment, which is their first in the ICC World Test Championship new cycle, will be a two-match home series against South Africa later this year. Pakistan is slated to play just five Tests this calendar year.

Devang, Divyanshi claim titles in badminton championship

Kanpur: Unseeded Devang Tomar and Divyanshi Gautam clinched the boys' and girls' singles titles respectively in the Yonex Sunrise UP state junior badminton championship that concluded at the Multipurpose Hall of the Green Park Stadium on Sunday. The Moradabad player Devang created a major upset in the semi-finals, defeating top seed Sumit Tiwari 21-14, 17-21, 21-14 in one of the most closely contested matches of the tournament. Both players engaged in long rallies, smashes, cross-court shots and drops, but luck appeared to favour Devang as he secured a place in the final. In the final, Devang emerged victorious against Prakhar Tiwari of Prayagraj in straight games, 21-10, 21-16. In the girls' singles, top seed Divyanshi Gautam comfortably defeated Rudrakshi Rana of Meerut 21-09, 21-14. Her combination of cross-court placings and drops proved too much for her opponent. Rudrakshi attempted to fight back with smashes but couldn't gain points, while Divyanshi executed multiple down-the-line smashes to win crucial rallies. The girls' doubles title was claimed by Adiya Yadav (Gorakhpur) and Ridhima Singh (Moradabad), who overcame the Agra pair of Palak Yadav and Sanghmitra Gautam 21-11, 21-17. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Abhishek Kushwaha (GGSSC) secured two titles.
