A leading sports analyst has publicly called on Salman Ali Agha to consider stepping down as Pakistan’s T20I captain following the team’s recent string of disappointing performances. The comments have sparked widespread debate among fans and experts alike.
Speaking on a local sports channel, the analyst argued that Pakistan needs fresh leadership and a new tactical approach ahead of upcoming international fixtures. He suggested that a change in captaincy could help rejuvenate the team’s mindset and strategy.
Salman Ali Agha, who took charge earlier this year, has faced mounting criticism after Pakistan’s early exit from the Asia Cup and inconsistent form in the T20 series. Many believe his leadership style has failed to inspire confidence among players.
Despite the criticism, some former cricketers have defended Salman, saying he deserves more time to prove himself. They argue that constant captaincy changes disrupt team chemistry and long-term planning for major tournaments.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has not yet commented on the growing calls for a leadership review. Insiders, however, suggest that internal discussions are underway regarding possible adjustments to the team’s management setup.
Fans on social media remain divided, with some supporting the analyst’s viewpoint while others stress patience and unity. The coming weeks will determine whether the PCB chooses continuity or change before the next T20 assignment.
