Babar Azam announced on Tuesday that he is stepping down as Pakistan’s cricket team captain. In a post on X, Babar said he informed the PCB and team management last month. He called captaincy an honor but said it added too much workload. Babar now wants to focus on his performance, enjoy his batting, and spend more time with his family, which brings him joy. He believes stepping down will help him prioritize his game and personal growth.
