Naqvi basically told the players that there would be no change in captaincy, and whoever they had as captains, the players must support them and play as one regardless of the format,” PTI quoted the source as saying.

As per reports, the players have also expressed their concerns over being unable to communicate with top officials and demanded someone act as a bridge between them and the top officials.
