Shoaib Malik is under critical observation these days, especially after the loss of the home series to South Africa. Former players and senior members are constantly criticising on the captaincy of Shoaib Malik.
 
I would like to rebut this criticism by saying that they should understand that it takes some time for a player or captain to become stable. One must also note that after the poor performance of Pakistan in the World Cup 2007, it was Shoaib Malik who took the team to the final of T20 world cup in the absence of key players like Inzamamul Haq, and defeated teams like Australia and South Africa.

It is sad that we lost to South Africa on home ground and a one-day series with India but we should also keep in mind that he is a new captain. How can we criticise someone for his first defeat?
Among the sorts available in Pakistani team, only Shoaib Malik has the required leadership qualities but this quality will take some time and experience to be polished. And considering the fact that he is a young captain, piles and piles of expectations will create pressure and this will lead him into frustration.
Therefore, all the critics should give Shoaib Malik some space so that he can learn more.
