Salman Butt Criticizes PCB Over Babar Azam Captaincy

Babar Azam

Salman Butt, former captain of the Pakistan cricket team and batter, is criticizing the Pakistan Cricket Board for its handling of captain Babar Azam. Butt is frustrated with how the board’s policies have made things tougher for Azam.

Butt believes PCB mismanagement has seriously hurt Azam’s capability to lead. Rather than fully supporting him, PCB has put unnecessary pressure on him, which reflects his performance.

Butt has said while Azam is not a leader by nature, he required more concrete support from the board to succeed. Instead of encouraging Azam and giving him needed resources, Butt saw the board pulling the rug from under Azam’s feet. The lack of support played into Azam’s woes. Butt believes that the PCB did not deliver much-needed support.

Butt also said that teammates’ public criticism has hurt Azam. In recent weeks, both Imad Wasim and Mohammad Amir have criticized Babar Azam openly.

Butt suggests that PCB’s poor handling of internal conflicts contributed to a toxic environment. It has led to poor on-field performances and bad team morale. He said the PCB has not delivered needed support around Azam. Butt claimed that the current leadership team is incapable and inexperienced.

Salman Butt Timing Is Interesting

Butt’s timing to make these comments shows how much Azam has been facing scrutiny. For him, PCB mismanagement is one of the main reasons behind the team’s below-par performance. PCB should have been doing everything it could do to help Azam succeed and not have the pressure weigh on his shoulders.

Butt admits that Azam is talented and promising. But he claims that maybe Azam has no leadership material. Butt reportedly believes one can only be a good leader with good individual qualities and solid support.

Butt’s comments apparently call for reform in the management of the respective cricket PCB captains. He wants a more supportive, effective management system. One that will recognize leaders’ needs in high-pressure roles. Butt knows and understands how important it is to back a captain. His critical words are for the best. He wants to see future captains receive support to help them thrive.
