The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has retained senior players Babar Azam and Shaheen Shah Afridi for the upcoming Test series against Bangladesh, despite earlier plans for a significant overhaul following a disappointing T20 World Cup performance. Shan Masood has been appointed as the Test captain, with Saud Shakeel as vice-captain. However, the series, scheduled to start on August 21, is in jeopardy due to political unrest in Bangladesh, which has also delayed the departure of the Bangladesh A team. Meanwhile, the ICC is considering relocating the Women's T20 World Cup, originally set to be held in Bangladesh from October 3-20, to alternative venues such as India, UAE, or Sri Lanka due to the same unrest. The ICC emphasizes that the safety and well-being of participants is the top priority as they monitor the situation closely.
