Azhar Ali steps down as Pakistan's ODI captain
Azhar Ali has stepped down as the captain of Pakistan's ODI cricket team, claiming that the pressure of captaincy was affecting his form as a batsman. Wicketkeeper-batsman Sarfraz Ahmed is set to lead the national team in ODIs. Notably, the move comes after Pakistan slumped to a 1-4 loss to Australia in the five-match ODI series in January.
