Pakistan Cricket Team / After the defeat, there was a rift in the Pakistani team - players were upset with Babar's dictatorship

Pakistan Cricket Team: No day is normal in Pakistan cricket. There is always some controversy. Whether it is inside or outside the field, Pakistan cricket always presents new masala for the people. Especially when a big tournament is going on, drama is certain. If the team does well then it is great but if the performance deteriorates even a little, then the team starts splitting very easily and something similar is seen happening once again. After the humiliating defeat at the hands of America in their very first match of the T20 World Cup 2024, tension is again visible in the team and the reason for this is the ways of captain Babar Azam.

On Thursday, June 6, the Pakistani team came to play their first match in the World Cup in Dallas. In front of them was the host USA, which was playing a World Cup for the first time. This was the first match between Pakistan and America in cricket of any level and everyone would have expected Pakistan to win easily but America surprised everyone by making a big upset. The American team registered the most sensational and biggest victory in its history by defeating Pakistan in a thrilling super over.

Players upset with Babar's dictatorship

Obviously this result was very shocking for world cricket but it was no less than a shock for the Pakistani team and its fans. A glimpse of this was also seen after the match, where former cricketers and fans were seen expressing their anger from TV to social media. At the same time, captain Babar Azam himself was seen venting his anger on his own players in the interview after the match.

Now as usual, the day after the match, there are reports of displeasure and rift in the Pakistani team, the reason for which is captain Babar. Arfa Firoz Jake, a reporter of Pakistan's Geo News channel, has made a sensational claim in a tweet that Pakistani players are not happy with the dictatorial mentality of the team captain Babar Azam and now it has become a major reason for tension in the team.

Sources say the DICTATOR mindset of BABAR AZAM has become a point of serious concern for other players of Pakistan Cricket Team!🙏 #T20WorldCup

Sources say decisions of Babar Azam in the match against USA actually ANNOYED some players of Pakistan Cricket Team. Babar took no suggestions and made decisions himself. #T20WorldCup

Does not take advice from senior players

A major reason for this is believed to be Babar Azam's arbitrary and strange decisions. Obviously he is the captain, so every decision on the field will be his, but often senior players keep giving suggestions to the captain, which captains around the world also accept many times. This is not seen in the Pakistani team and it is being claimed that Babar does not even listen to the suggestions of fellow players, due to which many players are irritated.

A glimpse of this was also seen during Pakistan's bowling, when Mohammad Aamir suggested giving the over to another fast bowler after completing his over but Babar gave it to the spinner. Babar Azam resigned after the team's crushing defeat in the ODI World Cup last year, after which Shaheen Shah Afridi was made the captain of the T20 team but he was also removed after the same series and Babar was again made the captain.
