Pakistan cricket aur drama ka purana rishta hai. Jab puri duniya aage badh rahi hai, wahan hamare padosi desh mein musical chairs ka khel khatam hi nahi hota. Aakhirkar, wahi hua jiska darr tha ya kahein jiska maza lene ka intezar poori cricket fraternity kar rahi thi. Babar Azam ne ek baar phir white-ball captaincy se hath dho liye hain. Ye wahi team hai jo Champions Trophy ki host banne ka sapna dekh rahi hai, lekin unka apna ghar hi sambhal nahi raha.
To Hua esa hai ki:
Kafi mahino se chal rahi kheencha-taani ke baad, Babar Azam ne social media par ye announcement kiya ki wo Pakistan ki ODI aur T20I captaincy chhod rahe hain. Unka kehna hai ki wo apni batting par focus karna chahte hain, lekin sach to ye hai ki PCB ke andar machi machand aur team ki lagatar buri performance ne unhe corner kar diya tha. World Cup 2023 ke baad unhe hataya gaya, phir Shaheen ko laya gaya, phir Shaheen ko be-izzat karke Babar Azam ko wapas laya gaya, aur ab phir wahi purani kahani. Ye script to Bollywood ki flop filmon se bhi zyada predictable ho gayi hai.
Jab India jaisi teams apni bench strength aur futuristic planning par kaam karti hain, wahan Pakistan is baat par lad raha hai ki captain kaun banega. Mohammad Rizwan ka naam agle line-up mein sabse upar hai, lekin kya captain badalne se unki kismat badlegi? Ya phir "Qudrat ka Nizam" hi unka akhri sahara reh gaya hai?
Analysis & Numbers
- Babar Azam ki captaincy mein Pakistan ne T20 World Cup 2024 mein USA jaisi nayi team se haarne ka sharmnaak record banaya.
- Pichle 1 saal mein Babar Azam ka strike rate aur average unki "Lumber One" batsman ki image ke bilkul viprit raha hai.
- PCB ne pichle do saalon mein teen baar white-ball captain badla hai, jo dikhata hai ki board mein kitna "Stability" ka bhandaar hai.
- Unki captaincy mein Pakistan vs India ke bade mukablon mein team hamesha pressure mein bikhar gayi, jise fans kabhi bhool nahi sakte.
The Guru Gyan Verdict:
Seedhi baat no bakwas: Pakistan Cricket is currently a sinking ship with too many captains and no direction. Babar Azam ka resign karna unki batting ke liye shayad acha ho, lekin PCB ka system itna kh खोkhla ho chuka hai ki naya captain sirf ek naya bali ka bakra hoga. Jab tak ye log "Personal Milestones" se upar uthkar team ke liye nahi khelenge, tab tak results aise hi aayenge. Filhal to unhe "Ghabrana Nahi Hai" ka mantra hi japna chahiye, kyunki Champions Trophy mein unka haal kya hoga, ye poori duniya ko pata hai.
