Following Pakistan’s 61-run defeat to India in the T20 World Cup 2026, serious discussions have emerged within the team management about dropping senior players. Reports suggest that Babar Azam and Shaheen Shah Afridi could be benched in upcoming matches, with replacements like Fakhar Zaman, Khawaja Nafay, and Naseem Shah under consideration. Former captain Shahid Afridi has also publicly called for radical changes, criticizing the performances of Babar, Shaheen, and Shadab Khan, and urging the inclusion of fresh talent. The management reportedly raised concerns in a post-match meeting, reflecting growing frustration over repeated failures in high-pressure games against India. The decision, if taken, would mark a significant shift in Pakistan’s strategy as they prepare for their next clash against Namibia. #TrendingPakistan #PAKvsIND #T20WorldCup2026 #BabarAzam #ShaheenAfridi #PakistanCricket
