Mazher Majeed’s Allegations Against Indians and Australians

In England during hearing of Fraud case against Pakistani cricketers, a recording of conversation between Bookie Mazaher Majid and Reporter Mazhar Mehmood has been presented. According to this recording Mazher Majeed has claimed that almost all senior Australian cricketers are involved in match fixing and spot fixing. He also added that he was in contact with Indian players Harbhjan Sing and Youvraj Sing. He also disclosed his contacts with some other Pakistani players like Umer Akmal, Kamran Akmal and Imran Farhat.

Now this is test case for ICC. Can ICC launch inquiry against Australian and Indians? Australian board has already rejected Mazhar Majeed’s allegations. ICC, BCCI and CA were the strong supporters of Mazher Majeed’s allegations against Pakistani players. But now CA is not taking  his allegations against Australians serious. Though BCCI has not showed its reaction till now, but some senior players has denied Mazher Majeed’s allegations against Indian players. Remember that these senior players were very furious against Pakistani players when they were named by Mazher Majeed as fixers, but now when he named some Indians they are furious against Mazher Majeed instead of Indian players. This attitude shows double standards of Indians and Australians. One can understand that they are not sincere with the game; otherwise they were due to demand similar inquiry as it was in case of Pakistani players.

If ICC is sincere in prevention of match fixing in cricket, it should contact Mazher Majeed and should launch inquiry for judging the allegations but if ICC remained silent against Australians and Indians it would be considered that all this drama was only a conspiracy against Pakistani players. 

Ultimate Causes of Indian Defeat in England

Indian cricket team has finished her tour of England without tasting flavor of win. Before this tour when Indian team was playing in West Indies,  Indian fans were saying that this is a very boring series because Indian team  is far more better then West Indies and therefore, the competition is boring. Every Indian was saying that the true competition will be in England. But then the entire world saw what happened in England. Infact there was no competition between theses two. England outclassed India in every format of cricket. Even Indian experts said that Indian players are playing like school boys.  The question is why all it happened?

Unfair Support of BCCI for Indian Players

The main factor which effected Indian performance is the nonsense behavior of BCCI. Unfair support of BCCI for Indian players made Indian players unserious during performance. Despite making themselves perfect in every field, these players realized that they can get positive results by pressurizing umpires as they did in West Indies.  These players were now thinking that even when BCCI prevent ICC from complete use of UDRS in test matches single handed, who can dare to go against Indian interests. Therefore, the focus of Indian players was on unfair means despite performance.

Lack of Interest

The approach of Indian players was very ordinary. It was looked like the players are just meeting the formalities to come to the crease and then return to dressing room. Any player was not interesting to stay on the crease. The reason is quite visible. These players are earning in millions by playing IPL for T20 Matches. Now playing test matches for less money is just fatigue for these players.

Conclusion

Before the world cup 2010 a weak team of Pakistan which was under pressure because of so many controversies, managed to defeat England in England in a Test match and two ODIs matches.  It means that England is not unbeatable in England but professional approach is required. But strong Indian team even not won any single match in any format. It means that there is lack of professional approach in the performance of Indian players for different reasons. BCCI should focus on the betterment of their team performance despite showing their power in useless matters. BCCI has to support measures like complete use of UDRS in every format of cricket for the betterment of cricket. Now BCCI has to rethink regarding it behavior, they should understand that they cannot pressurize umpires in every match, so the opposition of UDRS is useless furthermore. They should stop their player by using long tong after every controversy. BCCI has to made players to concentrate on performance rather then concentrating on controversial things.

Performance of “Legend” Sehwag

Just before the starting of India tour to England, ICC held a poll for selection of players for  “All time great team of test cricket history”.  As we know that Indians are now-a-days crazy regarding cricket after winning the recent world cup, therefore, most of Indians poll there votes and obviously selected most of Indian player as members of all time great team of test cricket. Amazingly Morli who is most wicket taking bowler in the test cricket history was not selected as member of this team and that showed that how credible was polling.

Two members of that team were Sachin Tendulkar and Verindar Sehwag. Although Sachin Tendulkar has failed in recent matches but no one can deny his greatness after achieving so many record. But the selection of Sehwag in that team was really shocking. Although he is good striking player of one day and T20s, but his standard is not of a player to be declare legend in test cricket. What is his ability cricket? If you want to  consider someone for scoring quickly as member of that team, then Shahid Afridi and Saneth Jaysoria are far better then Sehwag. The recent performance of Sehwag in test match against England disclosed his abilities after getting king pear.

So, ICC has to remain careful in future to avoid joking with legendry cricketers by selecting players on poll instead of performance and records. Actual ICC tried to disgraced players like Javed Miadad, Imran Khan, Richard and  Botham by including ordinary players like Sehwag to that Team.  Infact this was not ICC all time great team of test cricket, it was India all time great team of test cricket.  

Causes of Indian Defeat in Test Matches

After winning the recent world cup 2011, Indian cricket fans were expecting outstanding performance in Test series against England. But Indian team disappointed millions of fans.  In presence of record holder batsman like Sachine Tendulkar, historic captain for India MS Dhoni, Rahul Dravid named as “wall” and exciting off spinner Harbhajan Sing, present performance of Indian team is not acceptable to cricket fans. Besides these legends some very exciting players like Gotham Gambir and Suresh Raina are also part of Indian team. The question is what happened to Indian team suddenly?

Infact this is fact that the record of Indian team, outside the country is not good from the years. Most of Indian batsmen are masters of slow wickets. The example of Indian good performance at slow wickets is current performance of Indian batsmen at sub-continent in world cup. After this good performance even young team of West Indies trouble Indians at West Indies. Although India won the series but still West Indies gave them tough time at several occasions. But in England these stars batsmen failed completely and England won the first 2 test matches very easily. So, one can say that weak technique of playing on fast wicket is the prime cause of Indian failure in England.

The second cause of failure in England is fatigue. After performing with full capacity in World Cup 2011, Indian players were required rest badly. But BCCI did not consider win in world cup enough and instead of providing their players rest they use them as money earning machine in IPL. After so busy schedule of IPL definitely players were tired and they did not provide required results in England.

The third cause is adjustment of technique. After playing in short format of ODI in  World Cup and then T20s in IPL players are not able to adjust their technique to Test standard suddenly. ODI and T20 are completely different format from Test and it requires solid technique, temperament and patient to play in test matches. 

The final cause to me is lack of eagerness. In shape of wining the world cup and earning money through IPL, Indian players have got much more then they desired. They have won the world cup and therefore became heroes of nation. Then they played IPL and earned money, therefore, one can say that most of the player achieved their desires what they were looking for, so now there is lack of required eagerness for best performance in their attitude.  This is obvious standard for every game that after his all achievement players prefers to announce retirement.  So, according to this standard the retirement of some Indian players is due, but they are still their instead of providing chance to youngsters.

Is Harbhajan Concerns Acceptable on LBW Decision?

 

In 2^nd Test Match between India and England Stuart Broad completed his hat-trick. During this hat-tricks umpire misjudged Harbhajan Sing LBW decision. Infact the ball struck the bat before it hit the pads, therefore, Harbhajan sing was not out and he was victim of misjudged decision. 

After given out, he was upset and shown his unhappiness by shacking his head.  Now the question is, was the reaction of Harbhajan Sing was acceptable. To me, after opposing bowel tracking system in this series BCCI and  Indian players have no rights to show their concerns on misjudged LBW decisions. Because ICC and rest of cricket boards have taken all possible measures to avoid situation like this, but it is BCCI awful stance on “Ball tracking system” which prevent the use of latest technology for correction of misjudged decisions. So, the right place where Harbhajan Sing has to show his concern is the office BCCI.

India Vs England – Test for “Lions at Home”

It is known fact that the performance of India has remained always outstanding at home. India has defeated Australia in India when Australia was on top due to some extra ordinary performance by Harbhajan Sing and Nayan Mongia. Performance of India in the recent World Cup is another evidence of good performance at home.

After wining ICC World Cup 2011, Indian cricket fans are expecting continuation in this performance. The expectations of Indian cricket fans are very high. On the other hand England is also in good form. Although in recent World Cup the performance of England team was ordinary at slow pitches but at home England is always tough side. The recent performance of England against runner-up of World Cup 2011 “Sri Lanka” is encouraging for England. 

Now when both England and India are in good form, cricket fans are waiting for sensational encounters between the two.  Let see, can India wash the spot of “LIONS AT HOME” from her record? Let see, can England restore her dignity which she loss in World Cup 2011 due to worst performance?

Pakistan Vs India – The Kris Srikanth Factor

It was 2^nd Match of  the series between Pakistan and India in 1987. Aggressive opener of India Kris Srikanth scored 123 runs which was alarming for Pakistan. No doubt he was an aggressive customer. In the next match Pakistan came with a very aggressive strategy. In the beginning of the inning Wasim Akram hit Kris Srikanth on his eyebrow. It was a nasty glob for India as he was not able to continue the inning. Eventually he was taken to hospital for stitches. Later on he was not able to continue the series and was send back to home.  

After that hit Srikanth loss confidence against Pakistani fast bowlers forever and the evidence is his performance in 1989 series in Pakistan.

In 1989 when umpire judged Kris Srikanth as LBW, he showed his dissent. He was screaming and was showing like this is the end of the world and India cannot win in absence of him.

Imran Khan then caption of Pakistan cricket team who is a man of principle, called him back by the curtsy of umpire.  On the next delivery he was caught behind by the keeper.  This was the end of Kris Srikanth innings but in the memories of cricket fans this incident will alive for ever. Especially in cricket relationship of Pakistan and India this incident is of importance in general and for Pakistanis in particular. Indian may avoid to talk regarding this incident but Pakistani love to discuss this incident again and again.

When A Young Boy Hit 4 Sixes to A Magician

It was 16 December 1989 in Peshawar when Pakistan and India were opponent in a One day Match.  Pakistan was on a strong position and was favorite in that match. A 16 years old boy was facing Magic Bowler Abdul Qadir from one end and his student Mushtaq Ahmed from other end. In Mushtaq Ahmed over this 16 years old boy hit him 2 consecutive sixes. After that over Abdul Qadir came to bowl and conceded only 3 runs. The crowd and commentator were happy. Commentator were saying that this is difference between Abdul Qadir and Mushtaq Ahmed. But in the next over the situation changed amazingly. This boy hit 4 sixes to Abdul Qadir in an over.

There were now words on the inventory of Commentator to describe this situation. This young boy was little master Sachin Tendulker. He showed his class right from the beginning by hitting Abdul Qadir for 4 sixes in an over. After that innings he is playing and playing and will playing and playing and playing ………..

Negative Role of Sri Lanka in ICC Rotation Policy

According to media reports, it was South African vote which prevent ICC from changing the rotation policy for Presidentship of ICC. South Africa cost her vote alongwith Pakistan and Bangladesh against changing the existing policy which prevented ICC from doing so on the spot. Surprisingly Sri Lankan board remained neutral.

It is obvious fact that during past 3 decades England and Australia dominated ICC decisions and therefore, to counter injustice policy from these two countries Asian block played significant role and make these two countries to share the management and other issues with other test playing countries. But after getting a strong position in ICC by the help of Asian block, India is now on the same domination policy of Australia and England. India is now dictating her terms on the power of money as she is largest financial supporter ICC.

Desire of amendment in  ICC rotation policy is a part of domination policy of these three (India, Australia and England) boards. These three boards want to preside ICC one after another for ever. There is no chance for any other board to get presidentship by any means in absence of rotation policy. These three boards can do it by power of money and mutual understanding. This time South African vote prevented them, but Sri Lankan board attitude was disappointing. It is look like Sri Lankan board is acting like a puppet in the hands of BCCI for some financial reasons.

There is a need for other 7 cricket playing nations to prevent these 3 boards from controlling ICC on the power of money. These 7 boards should prevent the remaining 3 by power of vote from doing so. These 7 boards should make sure to get equal share in management of ICC on the principle of equality for the betterment of cricket.

BCCI Proposed UDRS System

BCCI is against use of new technology in cricket, therefore BCCI has come with a very pragmatic proposal which will help to correct the disputed decisions from umpires, the main features of BCCI proposed UDRS are as following:-

In case of LBW appeal, to judge the swing of a delivery ICC should acquire the services of snake catcher (Sapera). Because these snake catcher have massive experience in catching swinging snakes. So therefore, they can judge the delivery correctly and can tell the umpires was the ball going to hit the stumps or not.

To judge the close catches, like, was the ball touching the ground before fielder take it or not, ICC should employee some monkeys.  Because these monkeys have large experience in jumping, climbing and catching the fruits like Coconuts, apples and oranges in jungles.

In case of appeal for caught behind, to judge was it an edge or not, ICC has to employee some cats. As we know that these cats have large experience in judging the foot voices of a coming person towards kitchen. So using this experience, a cat sitting near to the stumps can conform the edges.

According to BCCI,  the essential step towards improving standard of umpiring, ICC should throw ISI agents like Steve Buckner and Darrell Harper from ICC elite panel. ICC should have a very close watch on the performance of Aleem Dar, Asad Rauf and some Sri Lankan umpires. In case of any bed decision against Indian players on the advice of ISI, ICC should cancel the contract of these umpires immediately. ISI can also try to buy some Indian umpires as according to Indian movies ISI has done it with most of Indian politicians, but in this case ICC has no right to take action against these Indian umpires, BCCI will handle these umpires through Sani Deval and Ajay Devgan by themselves.

All the members countries should support BCCI because being a main financial supporter of ICC, the brain of BCCI are superior than others.

India Deserves Domination in ICC

In this commercial world every department of life has been commercialized throughout the world. Commercialism in sports is on peak. Organizers of every sports event want to earn as much money as they can. The game of cricket which is very popular in subcontinent is also on the way of commercialism. As founder of this game in past few decades England and Australia were controlling its functioning. But after economic development in India, the journey of commercialism of cricket started. Most of money involved in cricket now-a-days belongs to India.  Playing one series against India can change the economic position of a cricket board in few days. Besides Indian players, players of other countries are also making money through IPL which is a domestic event of India. So, if most of the money involved in cricket now-a-days belongs to India, and only money is requirement of cricket boards now-a-days, why India should not dominate the cricket matters in ICC meetings.

 If India is not happy with UDRS, other boards should respect Indian feelings and should not stress on implementation of this system because being largest financial supporter of ICC, India deserve to get positive results through pressurizing umpires as she did with Steve Buknor and Darell Harper.

If Darell Harper has made Indians unhappy, the other boards should support Indian desire of removing him from umpiring in future, because making unhappy a large financial supporter of ICC is a crime. 

If India want to prevent the way of Pakistan and Bangladesh to nominate candidate for ICC Presidentship, the other boards should support India, what the other boards have to do with Pakistan and Bangladesh, after all India is a large financial supporter of ICC.

If any Indian player like Suresh Raina has been seen with bookies, cricket fans should not mind it and should not criticize ICC for not taking action, after all India is large financial supporter of ICC.

If India does not want to include Pakistani domestic champion team into Champions League, Pakistan should not protest and should respect India desires to throw her from International cricket, after all India is largest financial supporter of ICC.

If India wants to change the rotation policy of ICC for Presidentship of ICC and want to stay President for ever, the remaining boards should support India in doing so, because India deserve it as she is strong financial supporter of ICC.

In conclusion I would like to say that all the charm in the cricket grounds is because of India now-a-days, so cricket playing countries should give powers to India to change the constitution according to her desires any time and should also allow her to change the umpires to whom she unlike on the spot in on going match. After all India is largest financial supporter of ICC.

Disputed ICC Future Tour Programme 2012-2020

According to a website, it has got the draft of ICC future tour programme 2012-2020. According to this draft England will play 99 Test Matches, Australia will play 92 Test Matches, India will play 90 matches, South Africa will play 76 Matches, Sri Lanka will play 74 matches, New Zealand and West Indies will play 66 matches each, Pakistan will play 65 matches Bangladesh will play 42 matches and Zimbabwe will play 41 matches in the next 8 years programme.  India will not host any series against Zimbabwe and Bangladesh till 2020. India will play 166 ODIs which are more the any country.

T20 Champions league has been awarded officially space in this programme. Very cleverly unofficially IPL has also been awarded space in this programme. Being a domestic tournament of a single country IPL does not deserve to be awarded space but on the power of money Indian did so. As we know that the President of ICC is Indian and the CEO of ICC is Indian borne therefore, there is no problem for India to dictate her own agenda.

In the era of Malcolm Speed it was look like he is biased in favour of European countries, therefore most of effected countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe favor India for presidentship so, that India could protect their rights, but unfortunately if we look at the ICC future tour programme 2012-2020 the huge difference between the test matches of India, Australia, England and other countries like Pakistan, West Indies, Newzealand, Bangladesh, after getting presidentship India has joined the other elite group of England and Australia.  Even India is now trying to hold the presidenthsip for ever in his hand by removing Rotation Policy Act for Presidenthsip from ICC constitution. This attitude of ICC president from India is disappointing for other countries. India is considering herself the largest democratic state of the world, after forming a programme by and Indian President of ICC  (England will play 99 Test Matches, Australia will play 92 Test Matches, India will play 90 matches, South Africa will play 76 Matches, Sri Lanka will play 74 matches, New Zealand and West Indies will play 66 matches each, Pakistan will play 65 matches Bangladesh will play 42 matches and Zimbabwe will play 41 matches in the next 8 years programme) can we consider Indian democratic, is this is democracy in India to occupy the rights of weak like here India, Australia and England has occupied test matches of other countries?  

Indian Dirty Politics in Cricket

Champions League has announced its programme for the year 2011. The tournament will be held in September, October 2011 in India. Once again Pakistan has been excluded from this international T20 tournament.

Pakistan is a potential team of T20. Pakistan has won the world cup of T20 once and has remained runner-up one time also. Keeping in view the above facts minimum a team from Pakistan deserves to play in this league on merits. But this is not the case. The question is why Pakistan has been excluded from this league once again. The answer is because of “INDIAN DIRTY POLITICS IN CRICKET”.

ICC has completely allowed Indians to act upon their dirty agenda of isolating Pakistan in cricket. Three boards BCCI , CSA and CA are organizers of champions league. The intentions of BCCI are clear against Pakistan, but the others two boards are also obedient like dogs in respect of BCCI. Cricket CA and CSA are acting like puppets on the orders of BCCI and they have allowed BCCI to damage Pakistan cricket by isolating Pakistan from the remaining world of cricket. These boards and ICC are moving their tails in front of India by indications of Indians.  

In recent past legendary former cricketers have expressed their concerns on the function of ICC who is only working on the orders of BCCI. So, if these member countries are sincere with cricket not money, they have to prevent Indians from playing dirty politics in the game. 

Amendments in ICC Constitution

ICC is planning for an amendment in its constitution which will allow the governing body to have a close watch on cricket boards and suspend a member country in case of government interference in the matters of Cricket boards. This decision from ICC has both negative and positive aspects.

This proposal can bring very positive changes in Pakistan Cricket Board and Sri Lankan Cricket Board because the interference of government officials in the boards matters of the both countries is obvious. Adhocism is in vogue in both the boards.  This amendment can prevent a government from gifting chairmanship to a friend like in Pakistan.

The condition of Pakistan cricket boards is at the worst point, because of government interference in the board matters. The Chairman is just like a king who can do all worst with officials and players both without any restriction. Players has been tighten in its so called code of conduct, therefore, players have to sew their lapse on every bad decisions, otherwise they will be punished like Shahid Afridi by cancelling their NOC for all types of cricket.

So this constitution amendment can prevent worst situation like Pakistan Cricket board. But at the same moment we have to think regarding unpleasant influence of BCCI in ICC. The recent attitude of BCCI who is fully involved in isolating Pakistan from cricket world using IPL is an example. In future using this constitution amendment India or any other country can use it for political purpose also by suspending a member country.

Therefore, ICC should also take measures for prevention of negative use of this constitution amendment.

Replacement of Ijaz Butt

According to media reports in these difficult days when government is strong facing criticism from every where because of not acting on the resolution of Parliament and budget, furthermore, Ijaz Butt has created more difficulties for the government by removing Shahid Afridi from Captaincy. Government is facing strong criticism by keeping still Ijaz Butt as chairman. According to media reports finally President Zardari is thinking regarding replacing Ijaz Butt. But as usual the government is going to face more criticism inspite taking credit. The reason is the replacement of Ijaz Butt. Mr. President is again going to gift chairmanship to one of his friend, who is already unpopular among the people Mr. Zulfiqar Mirza.

This is the time that Mr. Zaradari should think regarding the betterment of cricket inspite making his friends happy. May Allah give him strength to think positively.  Ameen.

Suresh Raina Once Again with Bookies

Indian Stand-In-Captain has been once again monitored with notorious bookie Balaji. He is so closed to this suspected bookie Balaji that this man is holding his Arm, but Raina is saying that he does not know this person. How strange the statement of Raina is. This is not first time that Raina has been seen in company of a suspected bookie, before this he was seen with a lady  who has links with bookies during Indian Team tour to Sri Lanka in 2009. Sri Lankan board immediately reported this event to ICC, but due to pressure from BCCI inspite starting inquiry, ICC first tried to stay silent on the issue and later on when the matter came into media, ICC has issued note that we have considered the event but Riana is clear. This is the result of ICC double standards that Riana has done once again the same. The question is why is BCCI is trying to save the suspected players? Is BCCI want that their players should have contacts with Bookies? If this is not the case then BCCI should start investigation and should bring Raina to Justice. If BCCI is not doing so, what is ICC doing? Where is that active Chief Executive of ICC who reached London immediately after Pakistan cricket players’ controversy? Is he blind or sleeping now? Is the justice is only for Pakistanies and West Indians? Why ICC is silent once again on Raina contacts with bookies. Is it ICC or a Branch of BCCI?

Shahid Afridi Announced Retirement

Former Pakistan captain Shahid Khan Afrid has announced retirement from international cricket. He said that he can not play under a board which is involved in dishonoring senior players. He added that his statements which were for the betterment of Pakistan cricket has been used as charge sheet against him.
This is not the first time when because of stupid behavior of Ijaz Butt a star has announced retirement. Before him, Muhammd Yousaf has also done so. Younis Khan had been also humiliated by the this board in past.
As a captain Afridi had demanded batting coach for the betterment of the team but due to unknown reasons this board is interesting in keeping two bowling coaches. The negative behavior of Waqar Younis is the key factor which took Afridi towards this unpleasant decision.
The stance of Shahid Afridi is just right. Other cricket loving personalities like Mohsin Khan should also accompany him and should resign until the resignation of the current board. Enough is enough stupid Ijaz Butt must go home now.

Is Sri Lanka Tour to Pakistan Possible?

Sri Lankan Player Mahela Jayawardene. has stated that he and other Sri Lankan players have not forgotten Lahore attack on Sri Lankan team.  Officials of Sri Lankan board are also showing their concerns on the due tour of Sri Lankan team to Pakistan.

Sri Lankan players and board are very right, because the current worst seucity situation of Pakistan is not suitable for any international activity. In a situation where the security forces are not safe in their own home, how can they provide security to others?  We Pakistan cricket fans should realize this fact that we are facing worst security situation, therefore, we should not desire any team to visit Pakistan in current situation.

The stance of PCB is stupid as it remains always on other issues. They are stressing Sri Lankan board for tour without realizing the sensitivity of security issue. Pakistan can not afford more security laps for any visiting team. Therefore, inspite stressing Sri Lankan for tour, PCB should start work on plan ‘B’ of a neutral venue. This will be in favour of both the nation.

PCB – Dog's Tail

After the establishment of current government, unfortunately Pakistan is facing bad news from every field of life.  Suicide attacks on innocent people of Pakistan are a matter of routine. Drone attacks are addition to these suicide attacks. 20 hours so called load shading in 42+⁰ temperature is another disaster. Cricket is such an activity which Pakistani people can use to forget these problems for some time and can divert their attention towards normal life by watching good cricket matches.  But unfortunately this government destroyed the whole structure of Pakistan cricket also as it did with other organizations. President of Pakistan Asif Ali Zardari gifted the chairmanship of PCB to one of the relative of his Jailmate Ahmed Mukhtair.  This is fact that Ijaz Butt is enjoying this appointment because of his relationship with Ahmed Mukhtair, otherwise a wise man will not allowed him to enter in the premises of PCB office.

The tragedy of Muhammad Asif and Muhammad Aamir and attack on Sri Lankan players is on the credit of this management. This management destroyed Younis Khan by mentally torching and promoting grouping against him. Younis Khan is a player who is capable of leading Pakistan and is also capable to groom the upcoming batting talent of Pakistan. But this management has nothing to do with the success of Pakistan cricket. It has its own mysterious agenda.

After Younis Khan, Shahid Afridi gave some good hopes to Pakistan cricket. But again this management started conspiracies against him. Before the world cup it tried to remove Shahid Afridi from captaincy but because of immense pressure from Pakistan cricket fans this management avoid to do so at that time. But now as all the nation is focused on the dangerous situation of the country because of some differences with USA, this management shamelessly act upon its plan and appointed Misbah as captain. What is the justification for appointment of Misbah as captain? What agenda this board want to complete through the captaincy of Misbah? You can’t consider it future planning because he cannot play for long time because of his age factor.

The conclusion for the current PCB board is “Dog Tail will remain tilted for ever”
