Pakistan's vice captain position is led by Muhammad Rizwan.

Shadab Khan is also seen by certain board members as a strong contender for vice captain.

Selector Wahab Riaz of Pakistan said on Tuesday that the vice-captaincy position for the Pakistan Cricket Team in white-ball cricket is presently under consideration. An announcement is expected at a later time.

In order to properly manage player workloads, Riaz also stressed the need to institute a rotation scheme during the upcoming New Zealand series, raising the prospect of the captain getting a match's worth of respite.

The front-runner for vice captain, according to sources, is Muhammad Rizwan, who guided Multan Sultans to the PSL 9 final.

In addition, several board members see Shadab Khan as a strong contender for vice captaincy, pointing to his three PSL championships with Islamabad United and his time as Pakistan's T20I captain during Babar Azam's absence last season. After Eid, a ruling on this issue is anticipated.

Babar Azam's leadership may face difficulties with the return of Imad Wasim and Mohammad Amir, though, given their alleged tense relationship with the captain.

Wahab further stated that "everything is well" on the team, although there are rumors of dissatisfaction, especially since Shaheen Afridi is said to be dissatisfied with the PCB.

Amir's participation, according to some selectors, might make up for Shaheen's absence should the lanky pacer be rested for a few games during the series.

For the Sultans, it was deja vu as they watched another PSL final be stolen from them in a low-scoring thriller ending. United's hero was Imad Wasim, who defied time with an incredible all-around effort. He claimed five wickets and was out in the middle when Hunain Shah angled the final delivery behind point to win United's third title. In Karachi today, the drama of the previous year's epic final, which the Sultans lost by a run, was undoubtedly surpassed. At several points during both innings, United looked to have won that match, but never more so than when they got the Sultans down to 127 for 9. However, Iftikhar Ahmed's cameo of an unbeaten 32 off 20 balls lifted the Sultans to 159, a score that they felt they had just about enough manpower to ...
