Karachi: Azhar Ali has stepped down as Pakistan's one-day captain following the team's debacle in Australia with wicketkeeper Sarfraz Ahmed elevated to the post, the Cricinfo website quoted the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman as saying.
The former world champions rank a lowly eighth in one-dayers and speculation was mounting about the future of Azhar's captaincy following the team's comprehensive 4-1 defeat in Australia last month.
