Groupings within Pakistan team was also a factor in disastrous T20 World Cup campaign: Sources
Pakistan's early T20 World Cup exit is attributed to internal "groupings" and senior players' underperformance, prompting expected major changes in both the team and PCB. Captain Babar Azam struggled to unite the team, with divisions led by Azam, Shaheen Afridi, and Rizwan, worsened by the return of out-of-practice seniors like Amir and Wasim, causing discord and poor performances.
