When it comes to Pakistani cricket, the drama does not take the name of ending. After nearly three decades, Pakistan, which organized the ICC tournament, fell out of the league stage itself. In such a situation, the team was criticized a lot. Many veterans took out their anger about this. At the same time, the Pakistani team is on a tour of New Zealand. Many veterans including Mohammaj Rizwan have not been given a chance for this series being held immediately after the Champions Trophy. In such a situation, it was expected that Pakistani captain would be seen playing in the National T20 Cup. But according to the reports, the Pakistani captain decided to play a club cricket instead of playing in the PCB tournament. Rizwan’s move is being criticized. At the same time, former Pakistan fast bowler Sikandar Bakht has also jumped into the matter and has demanded PCB president Mohsin Naqvi to be “strict” and stop Rizwan’s central contract.
Speaking after Pakistan’s defeat in the second T20 against New Zealand on Tuesday, Alexander Bakht said that the central contracted players are “employees” of PCB; Therefore, they should be available for all tournaments organized by the board. He also urged Mohsin Naqvi to get a little strict in his methods and implement strict punishment on criminals.
Talking to Jio Super said, Alexander Bakht said, “He is an employee of Pakistan Cricket Board. He gets 60 lakhs per month, so he should play in tournaments that are organizing PCB. All the blame is on PCB.
Alexander further said, “This should not happen. Mohsin Naqvi needs to be strict. He comes out as a humble person, but he needs to change his ways.
Let me tell you, the performance of the Pakistani team under the leadership of Rizwan in the Champions Trophy was quite disappointing. The team could not win a single match of the league stage. Pakistan faced defeat against New Zealand and India, while their match against Bangladesh was canceled due to rain. Rizwan scored 3 against New Zealand and 46 against India.
