Najam sethi big statement: Former Pakistan Cricket Board President Najam Sethi has indirectly blamed former Prime Minister Imran Khan for the downfall of Pakistan Cricket. In a post on ‘X’, Sethi said that it is appropriate for the country to be angry at the national team’s performance. The host of the Champions Trophy, Pakistan, is out of the tournament after two consecutive defeats. Sethi wrote, ‘The cricket fraternity says that Pakistan’s level has fallen very low. A cricket team that was once number one in T20 (2018) and Test (2016) and ODI (1990 and 1996), which won the World Cup in 1992 and the Champions Trophy in 2017, how is it being compared to Zimbabwe today? ‘
According to Sethi, the fall of the team began in 2019 when a new management changed the domestic cricket structure under a new Prime Minister/Patron (Imran Khan at the time Imran Khan and he brought Ehsan Money as PCB president). Sethi wrote, ‘Political intervention continued, contradictory PCB policies became rules- foreign coaches were hired and fired again, selectors were arbitrarily nominated, to advise and management to old-renovated people. Admitted for.
He said, ‘Finally the strength of the players, the conflict of the captain’s ego and the factionalism in the team won the management’s failure. We have terrible results in front of us. Soon after Imran became Prime Minister, Sethi resigned from PCB. This cleared the way for the appointment of former ICC president Ehsan Money.
In 2019, on the instructions of Imran, PCB gave a new look to the domestic cricket structure and ended the old system of 16-18 departmental and regional Union to compete in domestic cricket events and introduced the first class structure of six teams.
Later, Imran also appointed Rameez Raja as the president in 2021 when Mani refused to accept the expansion of his contract. After the collapse of Imran government in December 2022, Sethi again replaced Rameez.
