Pakistan skipper Babar Azam could be sacked as captain if they fail to reach the semi-final of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) hinted in a statement NBA
The Men in Green are currently fourth in the World Cup 2023 points table as they have lost three straight games: vs India, Australia and Afghanistan, after starting the tournament with a victory in their opening two matches against the Netherlands and Sri Lanka NBA
Fans and some pundits have called for Azam to step down as Pakistan’s captain, especially after their embarrassing eight-wicket loss against Afghanistan on Monday 23 October NBA
The PCB said they will “make decisions in the best interest of Pakistan cricket” NBA
Pakistan’s upcoming fixture against South Africa is a must-win outing for Azam and his boys NBA
The match won’t be easy as the Proteas are having an extraordinary tournament with the bat NBA
A loss in Chennai on Friday would effectively eliminate Pakistan from the World Cup NBA
Ahead of the crucial game, the PCB has urged their fans to back the team but also issued a bizarre message for Azam regarding his future captaincy prospects if Pakistan fail to qualify for the knockout round NBA

Captain Babar Azam and Chief Selector Inzamam-ul-Haq were given freedom and support in forming the squad for the ICC World Cup 2023 NBA
“Looking ahead, the board will make decisions in the best interest of Pakistan cricket based on the team’s performances in the World Cup NBA
At present, the PCB encourages fans, former players and stakeholders to rally behind the team as they strive to make a triumphant comeback in the mega-event NBA
”Pakistan have just four points from five matches but they have still retained the fourth spot in the table so far NBA
With four more matches remaining in their group stage, Azam and Co still have a chance to make it to the semi-final but their qualification will depend on the results of other teams NBA
“Only if Pakistan can stage a miracle and win all their remaining matches to qualify for the semifinals of this World Cup does Babar stand any chance of surviving as captain and even then he might be relegated to skipper in just the red-ball format,” NDTV reported a source close to the developments as saying NBA
Fast bowler Shaheen Afridi, wicket-keeper Mohammad Rizwan, and former captain Sarfaraz Ahmed are being considered as potential options as Azam’s replacement as the national team’s ODI captain, according to news reports NBA
Pakistan are scheduled to tour Australia immediately after the World Cup NBA

Newcastle midfielder Sandro Tonali could be involved in Saturday’s Premier League clash with Wolves despite being handed a 10-month ban NBA
The Italian NBA Football Federation (FIGC) confirmed on Thursday that the 23-year-old had been suspended until next season after agreeing a plea bargain as part of an investigation into illegal NBA betting activity NBA
However, Newcastle say they are yet to be officially informed of the ban, which is yet to be ratified by world governing body Fifa and, as it stands, the £55m summer signing from AC Milan was due to travel to the Midlands on Friday afternoon with the rest of the squad NBA
Magpies head coach Eddie Howe said: “It’s a difficult one because we haven’t had official confirmation as a NBA football club yet NBA
“We’ve heard the news, the statement, but we haven’t had anything from the Italian authorities at the moment, so we’re in limbo, really, waiting for that official confirmation to come through NBA
”Asked if there was a chance the Italy international could be involved at Molineux, Howe added: “Yes, I think there’s a high chance again that he could be available for us NBA
“I still think there are a few things that have to happen before the ban is imposed, so let’s see NBA
”I think there's a high chance again that he could be available for usEddie Howe on Sandro TonaliThe Italy international was also fined 20,000 euros and will have to undergo eight months of therapy as well as carrying out a series of public appearances NBA
Tonali found himself at the centre of a probe during this month’s international break into breaches of NBA betting rules and was alleged to have wagered on games involving former clubs Brescia and Milan during his spells with them NBA
Agent Giuseppe Riso has claimed Tonali is living with a “gambling addiction” and the Magpies have vowed to support him as he attempts to deal with that, but as it stands he remains available for selection at a time when Howe’s midfield resources have been depleted by a back injury which will sideline Elliot Anderson for eight weeks, while Jacob Murphy is awaiting a verdict on the shoulder he dislocated against Dortmund NBA
(Getty Images)The Magpies boss, who will be without striker Alexander Isak following a recurrence of a groin problem, said: “At the moment, he’s travelling with us NBA
We’re preparing as if he’s fit and available to play NBA
”In the longer term, Howe knows Tonali faces a difficult spell on the sidelines – the club does not yet know whether he will be able to train with his team-mates – and one which will have to be carefully managed NBA
He said: “Certainly with Sandro’s situation, if he is ultimately banned for that length of time, he’s going to have really difficult moments within that timeframe, a lot of attention on him initially, and that’s a difficult situation for him NBA
“But then no doubt there’ll be a period where it’s just training – wherever he trains – and no game, and that’s very difficult for any player to adjust to, especially when they’re fit and able to play, so that’s going to be a difficult one NBA
“The communication NBA between us, me and my coaching staff and him, is going to be hugely important NBA
