I am not sure what good this can do to the Pakistani team. He will be replaced by whom? The most prominent name that I am hearing is that of Shaheen Shah Afridi, but I am quite skeptical about his role as the captain. Even as an opening bowler, there have been numerous occasions when he crumbled under pressure. I would rather go with someone with a bit more maturity, such as Fakhar Zaman or Mohammad Rizwan. At least I would prefer a batsman rather than one of the bowlers. Shaheen Shah needs more time to learn maturity.
It was all because of his father in law (Shahid Afridi) efforts. Shaheen was Pakistan main bowler in this world cup and he along with Haris was a total disaster.
PCB also appointed new Chief Selector i.e Wahab Riaz and Muhammad Hafeez was given the role of Director of Men's cricket team. All coaching staff is replaced or few already resigned. That's why Mikey Arthur was coaching Pakistan team via Zoom session. He knew that he can be sacked on any fine morning.
Babar stepping down from captaincy is good for him. Having said that, it's kind of hilarious and surprising to see that within an hour of his resignation, PCB appointed new captains for all formats. It's like everything was pre planned and they were ready with everything.
No discussion or pretending to set up a committee whatsoever, just another normal day at PCB's office.

He probably was given option that you step down yourself or we remove you from captaincy. Everything was already planned.
