Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi confirmed Thursday that Shan Masood will remain the captain of the national team for the upcoming Test series against Bangladesh.


Talking to the media, Naqvi said that he spoke with Masood via video call to discuss improvements for the team in Test cricket.


The two-match series between Pakistan and Bangladesh is part of the ICC Test Championship 2023-2025.


Naqvi said that he recently spoke with Masood via video call to discuss improvements for the team.


“No decision has been made to remove Shan Masood as Test captain of the national team,” he said.


He said the 34-year-old opening batter will continue to lead Men in Green in Tests as he had received positive feedback regarding Masood’s leadership.


“Many have given positive feedback about his leadership,” said the PCB chairman.


Naqvi said that the PCB has finalised the venues for the Test series against Bangladesh, which will be held in Multan, Karachi or Rawalpindi as Gaddafi Stadium is undergoing upgradation.
