Shaheen Afridi says he remains Pakistan’s captain in one-day internationals, stating: “till now I am Pakistan’s captain for one-day internationals,” as discussion grows around a possible change in leadership. The remarks come amid a broader captaincy review following recent poor results.
Reports cited in the coverage suggest that Babar Azam may be considered to lead Pakistan across all formats. The outlets frame the situation as part of a “captaincy purge,” implying that multiple roles are under reassessment rather than a single immediate appointment.
While Shaheen’s comments directly address his status in ODIs, the reporting does not establish an official end date or confirm any formal transition to an all-format captain. The differences between the pieces mainly reflect emphasis—one highlights Shaheen’s current ODI authority, while another points to the wider speculation about Babar’s potential all-format leadership—rather than contradicting the core claim about Shaheen’s ODI captaincy.
