The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has got full marks from cricket fans on their decision to give ODI captaincy too to the right-handed batsman Babar Azam.

Babar, who has retained A category in renewed central contracts which were announced earlier today, will be seen in action as Pakistan’s skipper in white-ball cricket.

The majority of the cricket fans hope that Babar will drive Pakistan as sweetly as his cover drives. Here is what fans had to say over PCB’s decision:

Former Test cricketer Mohammad Yousuf also showed belief in Babar and hoped he comes up with more power.

Best of luck @babarazam258 for new ODI captain.
Insha’Allah he will prove himself as a captain just like he has improved himself as a world-class player.
