Pak's Captaincy Chaos: Can Salman Agha Deliver Minus Babar? | First Sports With Rupha Ramani

England begin the Joe Root era without Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum, the architects of Bazball, as the three-match Pakistan Test series gets underway at Headingley. Pakistan, meanwhile, will be without captain Babar Azam for the opening Test after a recurring hand injury, handing first-time Test captain Salman Agha the reins. Both sides sit at the bottom of the World Test Championship table heading into this series. Rupha Ramani breaks down Root's plan to preserve the Bazball spirit without "ripping it up," Stephen Fleming's delayed start as England's new head coach, Pakistan's leadership chaos under Sarfaraz Ahmed, and why this opening Test at Headingley could reveal more about both teams than any result on the scoreboard.

Also on the show, Israel has become the latest football federation to withdraw its support for Gianni Infantino's FIFA re-election, just days after the governing body sacked chief operating officer Kevin Lamour for criticizing Infantino's controversial World Cup investment plan. Premier League chief executive Richard Masters didn't hold back, telling the BBC that FIFA has "pressed the self-destruct button" over the botched proposal. Rupha Ramani breaks down how Infantino's failed attempt to broker an Israel-Palestine reconciliation on FIFA's own stage has come back to haunt him, why Kevin Lamour's exit has become a flashpoint for dissent inside FIFA, and whether the mounting cracks - Israel, England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, New Zealand and Norway all withdrawing support - signal real trouble for Infantino ahead of March 2027, or just noise he'll walk through untouched.
