London: After being made the Pakistan Test skipper, Azhar Ali has said that it is an opportunity for him to leave a legacy in the sport and there could be no greater honour than leading your side. "There could be no greater honour. This is an opportunity for me to leave a legacy. The amount of cricket I have played for Pakistan, the next four-five years are very important for me both as a player and a captain," ESPN Cricinfo quoted Ali as saying.

"I aim to bring players through under my captaincy that can serve Pakistan cricket for many years to come. This is what I mean by leaving my legacy. I want to transfer my experiences to them and help them learn how to play fearless, positive cricket. So winning is very important, but building a positive culture is my top priority," he added. On Friday, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) decided to sack Sarfaraz Ahmed as the Test and T20I skipper. In place of him, Ali was made the Test captain while Babar Azam was handed the reins in the shortest format of the game.
