Sports journalist Shoaib Jatt shared a scoop that Babar Azam could step down as captain despite the Pakistan Cricket Board wanting him to continue.

The journalist added that former captains think the right-handed batter should remain as Test captain for the moment as the side will tour Australia for a Test series.

Shoaib Jatt claimed that PCB dissolved the selection committee on the recommendation of either Younis Khan, Mohammad Hafeez, Wahab Riaz or Sohail Tanvir following their meeting the Chairman Zaka Ashraf.

Pakistan floods: South Asia’s monsoon explained

Floods in Pakistan have killed more than 1,000 people after what its climate change minister called a record unbroken cycle of monsoon rains with “8 weeks of non-stop torrents”. AFP explains what the monsoon is, why it is so important and yet so dangerous, and how climate change and other man-made effects may be altering the vast life-giving but destructive annual weather system. What is the South Asian monsoon? The Southwest or the Asian Summer Monsoon is essentially a colossal sea breeze that brings South Asia 70-80 percent of its annual rainfall between June and September every year.

ISLAMABAD: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) on Monday removed a recently installed ‘Golden Hands’ sculpture located along Margalla Avenue in Islamabad. The artwork featured two large golden hands holding two balls like objects resembling a world map. Installed by a private developer, the sculpture quickly gained widespread attention on social media, sparking debate, memes, and a wave of speculation over its symbolism.
