The Pakistan Cricket Board recently reappointed Babar as Test captain. Babar replaced Shan Masood before the West Indies tour. Meanwhile, the Pakistan Test team started the two-match Test series against the West Indies with a 90-run defeat against the West Indies at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Tarouba.
“He just started performing well now after a long, long time, like after two and a half years, you can say he's looking in good touch,” Amir said.“And suddenly you're putting him under pressure, like in Pakistan, you know, from media, our culture is very tough. You're always on your toes. You have to be answerable for every single thing. So now he's captain.
