Chaminda Vaas, the bowling coach of Colombo Strikers, revealed that Babar Azam, the Pakistan skipper, decided not to lead the team in the ongoing Lanka Premier League (LPL). Babar preferred to focus solely on his batting, and the team respected his decision.
Niroshan Dickwella was appointed as the captain in Babar’s place. Despite not leading, Babar’s presence in the team is a great learning opportunity for the young players.
In a recent match, Babar’s exceptional 59-run knock helped the team secure their first win in the tournament, earning him the player of the match award. The Strikers’ captain, Dickwella, praised Babar’s determination and urged his team to learn from the best.
