Twitter reacts as PCB sack Sarfraz Ahmed from Test and T20I captaincy
After an unsuccessful World Cup campaign and after conceding a T20I series whitewash, even though Sri Lanka didn't field their main team against the No.1 ranked T20I team, Sarfraz Ahmed was removed as the captain of the T20I and Test team. This decision received a mixed reaction from the Twitterati.
And this is how PCB reacted to the sacking! Shocking!
They’ve deleted it now but was a gif of these pics (Fakhar dancing and Saifi being “sent off” in some training session) https://t.co/q01xs1cVcM pic.twitter.com/0zeg5nJZyB

Yeah right!
The PCB apologies for this post and accepts the timing of it was wrong. This was a pre-planned post as part of the one-year to go #T20WorldCup promotional campaign. The timing of this post clashed with the captaincy announcement for which the PCB offers its regrets.

Stats don't lie!
News of Sarfaraz Ahmed being removed as Captain from all formats. Test and ODI make sense but how could they remove him in T20 considering his successful stats? #Cricket #Pakistan #PCB #SarfarazAhmed pic.twitter.com/FkmMJDXwBN

People have a very short memory!
Do you remember?@SarfarazA_54 has the world record of 11 consecutive T20Is series win as a captain. Consistency in the shortest format is not an easy task but he made it easy. Yes we all are fickle. Best of luck Sir Sarfaraz !#SarfrazAhmed #ProudOfYouSarfaraz

Retirement talks begin!
Good Decision by #PCB.

I have a question, why he was in the team for so long ?
Sarfaraz should take retirement.#SarfrazAhmed #sarfraz #PCB #BCCIPresident #Cricket
What was PCB thinking!?
Sarfraz's individual performance was zero, not a single match-winning performance except champion trophy win against SL. Now, PCB making mistake by choosing Babar as a replacement in ODI captaincy. He's not yet ready and surely will affect his batting.
