Pakistan’s cricket selector Aaqib Javed says the Pakistan team’s shortcomings have led to sweeping personnel changes, and he criticizes captain Babar Azam and coach Sarfaraz Ahmed for not taking the right on-field decisions. Javed’s comments are framed as an explanation for why the Pakistan Cricket Board steps in rather than leaving key calls to the captain and coaching staff.
In his remarks, Javed points to tactical and decision-making failures during matches as the trigger for board intervention. The explanation emphasizes that responsibilities lie with leadership roles inside the team, including the captain’s match control and the coach’s guidance. The outlets’ reporting focuses on the rationale behind the PCB’s decisions and presents Javed’s criticism as central to understanding the extent of the changes. Both accounts highlight his view that Pakistan’s performance is not meeting expectations, prompting action from the board.
