Pakistan cricket captain Babar Azam has developed a fever ahead of the third Test match against England at Edgbaston, deepening the team's ongoing selection and leadership crisis.
The team management confirmed the illness, which adds to the pressure on the squad following recent controversies involving the resignation of selectors and squad instability.
Pakistan faces a critical juncture in the series, and Babar's availability for the upcoming match remains uncertain as medical staff monitor his condition closely.
