Misbah Ul Haq has decided to continue captaining the Pakistan Test team contrary to retirement rumours.

Misbah will be captaining the team on their tour of West Indies, with Sarfraz Ahmed as vice-captain.

The PCB said in a statement,

“

Misbah-ul-Haq has conveyed to the Chairman [of] PCB his desire to continue as captain of the Pakistan Test team. Accordingly, the Chairman has approved his appointment for the upcoming West Indies Test series. The Chairman has also approved appointment of Sarfraz Ahmed as vice-captain of the Pakistan Test team.

”

The seat of vice-captain in Tests was empty since Azhar Ali stepped down as ODI captain and Test vice-captain.

Sarfraz Ahmed already leads the T20 side and will be second in command in Tests.
