Mohammad Rizwan - the next white-ball captain of Pakistan?

With Rizwan emerging as a strong candidate for captaincy ,one thought came to my mind and I would like to know opinions of my honourable fellows on this "Are wicket keepers make a better captain than any other in cricket? "

I know that effective captaincy depends on some of other factors as well like
1- Technical Acumen
2- Leadership qualities
3- Communication skills
4- Player management etc.
However, a wicket keeper with above mentioned qualities will have an extra advantage due to his unique field position.

Your thoughts?
Yeah you’ve got to care about your team first as captain

Not yourself. A Babar fan should have learned this lesson by now.
 
Mohammad Rizwan has been announced as Pakistan's new white-ball captain.

Salman Ali Agha is the new white-ball vice-captain.
 
Let's see how he does. Don't think there was any other choice after what they did to Shaheen.
 
The expected announcement, I don't think anyone would have thought any different for who the front runner was. Let's see how he does.
 
All the best to Rizwan with his new leadership role.

Australian series may not be easy but other series are quite winnable.
 
Rizwan is not half the leader Babar is, trust me its another false dawn Babar is too big a player to captain for Rizwan.

Or we do dare to drop Babar for the sake of Rizwan as captain.

Leadership is not we learn in books and slides rather its a very emotional personal and egoistic trait. Every leader has some positives and negatives the key to success is you must overpower your weakness to your strength, taking all along as a leader is a very crucial trait and not many have this quality even the likes of Kohli to settle as skipper had to drop Gambhir.

Wasim.Akram for good part of his captaincy kept Waqar Younis away from team and other countless examples in cricket, Butttler dropping Roy.

Chris Gayle never had the same ambition for WI once he was relinquish from captaincy. But expecting sanity from PCB is like insanity.

Those who are giving sweeping statements on captaincy and chopping changing , majority of them have never been in Leadership role or worked as leader.

What a weird poster
 
I hope not.

Like Babar, he too has zero charisma and personality. He just doesn’t look or act like a leader from any angle.

He is also a total fake and a mediocre player. At least Babar is not fake and is a very good player.

If you are going to offer me Rizwan as an alternative I would rather stick with Babar.

Rizwan who shouldn't even be included in the main xi of a proper t20i side is being recommended by some fans as the next captain!🤣 Are you kidding me? In odi's I understand, the guy has made enough people fool to convince that he had a great world cup & was the "best" performer of his side. Like an expert con artist he maintained wonderful statistics by bullying the minnows & scoring some useless 30/40 statpadding digits to make the impression of a great performer. So if anybody wants him as the next odi captain I understand the logic no matter how flawed that might be. But, t20i? in a format where he doesn't even merit a place? Wasn't the embarrassment of last t20 wc not enough that some people want further antics?

Shame he doesn’t post often.
 
RIzwan is history now in t20s... Time to move on from him. He was never the right person to be made T20 captain this time. If it has to be salman then he should have been made before,

That’s a separate matter. I will address him when the time comes.

Rizwan will not get away scott free. I will not allow it.

He'll be back. We have a National T20 cup and PSL coming up. Rizwan's best format is T20s and he will as usual excel in those tournaments to bounce back stronger.

My only criticism of him is that he should've been a more authoritative captain and should've stamped his presence to build his own team.
