Pakistan’s poor performance in the T20 World Cup 2026 has raised serious questions about the team’s leadership. Salman Ali Agha’s captaincy has come under scrutiny after the team failed to meet expectations. PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi is reportedly planning to appoint a new captain in the T20I format.
"Niazi ko toh pehle bhi aap khila chuke ho... uski umar kitni hai yeh jo nayi aa gayi hai? (You have already played Niazi before… what is his age now that is being mentioned?)" Afridi asked.
Shahid Afridi said, "Irfan Niazi is really 23? If he is 23, then we are fine, we must be around 30-35. I thought I was the only one who had reduced my age". ?pic.twitter.com/D5KTPGfu72

He also recently captained the Pakistan Shaheens team in the Men's Asia Cup Rising Stars tournament in late 2025. Niazi guided the team to victory with a win over Bangladesh in the final.
