Pakistan are likely to leave out Babar Azam and Shaheen Shah Afridi for their next T20 World Cup match against Namibia, according to a PTI report. The move follows their 61-run defeat to India in Colombo. A team management source said the decision came after internal talks late at night. PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi reportedly showed displeasure over the performance and left the stadium early. Head coach Mike Hesson also spoke to players in the dressing room. The source said the plan is to try Salman Mirza or Naseem Shah and Fakhar Zaman. If results improve, the senior duo may not return this tournament. (PC: X)
