Pakistan cricket team’s fast bowler Wahab Riaz believes that Mohammad Rizwan made an important statement about former captain and wicketkeeper batsman Sarfraz Ahmed.
Pakistan cricket team’s fast bowler Wahab Riaz believes that Mohammad Rizwan has full potential to replace former captain and wicketkeeper batsman Sarfaraz Ahmed.
Talking to the media before the third T20 match against Australia, Wahab Riaz said that Sarfaraz Ahmed was dropped from the team due to poor batting. He said, “Sarfaraz Ahmed ran the team very well and he is a very good player but he was not in form and hence he was dropped.” Sarfaraz Ahmed has done a lot for Pakistan as captain but since he was not in form, Mohammad Rizwan is being given a chance to perform. Whenever a player is included in the team instead of someone else, he is talented enough to perform for Pakistan.”
Wahab Riaz also praised the newly elected captain of the Pakistan T20 team, Babar Azam, who scored half-centuries in both the matches of the T20 series against Australia. The fast bowler said, “Babar Azam is leading with responsibility and showing performance. We saw him batting well in both the matches, he is confident and scoring runs. Of course, captaincy is a new challenge for Babar Azam and he will gain more experience with the passage of time.”

**Interviewer:** Thank you for joining us today, Wahab. You recently made some strong statements regarding Sarfaraz Ahmed’s leadership and the rise of Mohammad Rizwan. Can you elaborate on what you meant when you referred to Sarfaraz as a “sharp captain”?
**Wahab Riaz:** Absolutely. Sarfaraz has always been a strategist on the field. His decision-making skills and ability to read the game are exceptional. I believe he has faced challenges, particularly with his form, which ultimately led to his exclusion from the team. But he has done a commendable job leading Pakistan cricket.
**Interviewer:** You also mentioned that Mohammed Rizwan has the potential to take over from Sarfaraz. What qualities do you see in Rizwan that support this claim?
**Wahab Riaz:** Rizwan has shown tremendous talent and consistency with the bat. Beyond that, he possesses the mental strength to handle pressure situations, which is critical for a player taking on the captaincy. Given the opportunities, I believe he can excel and elevate the team’s performance.
**Interviewer:** You spoke highly of Babar Azam as the new T20 captain. How do you see his leadership style evolving in the context of the team’s success?
**Wahab Riaz:** Babar’s leadership is built on performance, and he’s shown that he can handle the pressure with his batting. Each match serves as a learning experience for him. As he gains more confidence and experience, I anticipate he’ll grow into a formidable captain for our team.
**Interviewer:** There seems to be a strong debate among fans regarding the decision to drop Sarfaraz in favor of Rizwan. Do you think this decision has divided opinions among cricket supporters?
**Wahab Riaz:** Absolutely, cricket fans are passionate and have their favorites. Some would argue that Sarfaraz deserves to be in the team due to his contributions while others might support the need for fresh talent in the squad. This is a natural part of sports, and it will be interesting to see how this plays out for the upcoming matches.
**Interviewer:** With all these changes, what do you think the future holds for Sarfaraz Ahmed within the realm of Pakistan cricket?
**Wahab Riaz:** Sarfaraz has a vast experience and, if he continues to work hard and regain form, there’s always a possibility for him to return. Cricket is unpredictable, and opportunities can arise when one least expects it. He has contributed immensely, and my hope is that he stays resilient.
