The plight of Pakistan cricket is no secret. The PCB is constantly changing coaches and captains. Now, former selector Misbah-ul-Haq has exposed the true nature of Pakistani cricket.
The veteran exposed the secrets of Pakistan cricket
What is going on in Pakistan cricket? Will changing the team and the selection committee change the present and future of the Pakistan cricket team? The PCB faced such significant questions, so it replaced half the team midway through the England series. Meanwhile, Misbah-ul-Haq, who was part of the selection committee, resigned. After leaving the PCB, Misbah has exposed the board.
Misbah-ul-Haq, who was part of the Pakistan team's selection committee, revealed the harsh reality that there is a distinction between regional and foreign coaches in Pakistan. He said that local coaches are subjected to greater scrutiny and face more criticism.
Pakistan cricket's secrets exposed
Speaking on a Pakistani TV show, Misbah said, "It is true that there is a distinction between local and foreign coaches in Pakistan cricket. Regional coaches face more scrutiny and criticism than foreign coaches."
Misbah said he has no problem with foreign coaches, but the system in Pakistani cricket has become such that foreign coaches are viewed differently. He expressed disappointment that local coaches are always the target of criticism. However, when the team performs poorly, foreign coaches are not reprimanded as much as they deserve.
Cosmetic surgery will not work
The Pakistan team is trailing 0-2 in the current series against England. Before the third Test begins on September 9th, the PCB made an unexpected move. Seven players, including Mohammad Rizwan, Imam-ul-Haq, and Salman Agha, were sent home, along with two coaches. Following this board decision, Misbah decided to resign, as he was not informed of the changes.
On these changes, Misbah-ul-Haq said, "We shouldn't resort to cosmetic surgery out of fear or pressure. We should assess the performance and the situation and then decide what is best for the future." Misbah said that the unfortunate thing about Pakistan cricket is that there is a tendency to take immediate action out of fear and pressure.
