And the management is thinking that if anything happens tomorrow, Rizwan is a player we can prepare for leadership.

He was also setting up fielding as Babar Azam was at mid-wicket at the time and he knew the gap in the field. It was not possible but Rizwan pointed it out because he was standing in the middle of the wicket.
