'Stop supporting Babar Azam or go to jail'

According to reports, the Pakistan Cricket Board under Najam Sethi has decided to sack Babar Azam from Test and ODI captaincy. Shan Masood, who scored a duck in the third and final ODI against New Zealand, will replace him in the role.

Babar has done well as a skipper in white-ball cricket, but the star player failed in the red-ball format. However, he is still the best batsman in Pakistan across formats.

Fans are backing him since the reports of his removal surfaced on social media.

Here are the Twitter reactions

Stop supporting Babar Azam or go to jail?

Sacking Babar Azam from ODI captaincy before 2023 World cup will shake the structure of team and we'll go with an untested fragile captain for WC 2023. Even there should be no mull over such changes at this time. #BabarAzam

If babar stepped down from captaincy i guess that will be my last day of watching Pakistan cricket. This guy made me watch cricket again and made me fall in love with all over again. We don't deserve great names💔#BabarAzam

So this guy is chosen to lead Pakistan?. I have my serious doubts on Shan Masood. It has to be Shaheen, Shadab or Sarfaraz for a year or so, otherwise persist with Babar. #PakvsNZ #ShanMasood #Captain #BabarAzam #PCB

I'm genuinely concerned about Babar's captaincy in ODIs, he has been brilliant in this one and the one replacing it isn't even in regular playing X11. Please don't repeat the 2016 thingy, when Azhar Ali was made ODI captain and this was the only reason he played ODIs.#BabarAzam

Pakistan qualified for the final of the Asia Cup and the ICC T20 World Cup. Pakistan cricket has gone through massive changes.

Ramiz Raja was sacked and replaced by Sethi. The entire selection committee was removed, and Shahid Afridi took over as interim chief selector.
