Babar Azam feels lucky to lead national team in ODIs for first time in Pakistan

The T20I Captain says there are many big names but they did not lead Pakistan in ODIs for last ten years, and therefore he is lucky this time to lead the national team.

RAWALPINDI: (UrduPoint/Pakistan Point News-Oct 12, 2020) Pakistan T20I Captain Babar Azam is excited to lead the national team for the first in One Day International (ODI) cricket.
