Pakistani captain Shan Masood got the support of Ravichandran Ashwin, and said this by taking the name of Babar Azam

Pakistan captain Shan Masood has been on target since the shocking defeat in the Test series against Bangladesh. Masood and his entire team are facing severe criticism due to the embarrassment of being clean-swept in the series by Bangladesh on their soil. At such a time, Team India's veteran all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin has expressed sympathy with the Pakistani captain and said that he can prove to be a good captain. However, Ashwin also admitted that it is not going to be so easy for him to handle the current Pakistani team and Ashwin gave a special reason behind this by taking the name of Babar Azam.

Bangladesh surprised everyone by defeating Pakistan very easily in both the matches of the Test series played in Rawalpindi. In the first match, it registered a resounding victory by 10 wickets, which was its first victory in Test against Pakistan. Then it won the next Test by 6 wickets and whitewashed Pakistan in its own home. In this series, the poor performance of Pakistan's legendary batsman Babar Azam and star fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi was the most discussed topic, but at the same time, Shan Masood's poor captaincy and his even worse batting were also under question, which everyone is criticizing.

At home, Shan Masood is not getting any kind of support from fans, former cricketers, or the media, but veteran Indian spinner Ashwin was seen standing in his support. In a video posted on his YouTube channel, Ashwin expressed his opinion on the current situation of the Pakistani team and expressed sympathy for Shan Masood. The Team India star described Shan Masood as a great cricketer and said that he talks very logically. Ashwin said that Shan Masood can prove to be a great captain but it is not so easy to handle the current Pakistani team. Ashwin gave the reason for this and said that Pakistan cricket's poster boy Babar Azam is not the captain of the team and due to this the current dressing room is not so settled.

Shan Masood was made the Test captain of Pakistan only last year. He replaced Babar Azam, who had left the captaincy of all formats after the team's poor performance in the ODI World Cup. Although Babar became the captain of the T20 team again this year, the command of the Test team remained on Shan's shoulders. However, the team's performance under his captaincy has been very poor and the Pakistani team has lost all 5 matches. First, his team lost 0-3 in Australia and now Bangladesh has defeated them. Now Shan Masood's next test will be in October when the England team will tour Pakistan for a 3 Test match series.
