Pakistan cricket commentator Latif advises that Babar Azam should stay away from the media during Pakistan’s England tour. In both reports, he argues that Babar could face closer scrutiny from English media than expected.

Latif also suggests a shift in responsibilities for team media interactions. He recommends that former Pakistan captain Shan Masood take on more of the team’s engagement with journalists during the series. The reports frame the advice as an approach to manage how the Pakistan squad is presented publicly while playing in England.

The coverage focuses on Latif’s views rather than on any official PCB decision. Both outlets describe the same underlying point—that limiting Babar’s direct media exposure could reduce potential pressure—while noting the proposed alternative: increased media handling by Masood.
