Pakistan Cricket in Turmoil: Ex-Cricketer Criticizes PCB
WHY IT MATTERS
The crisis in Pakistan cricket may impact the team's performance in upcoming international matches, potentially affecting their chances of qualifying for major tournaments.
What happened
Pakistan's cricket team is facing a crisis after a series of high-profile departures and resignations. Seven players, including head coach Sarfaraz Ahmed and bowling coach Umar Gul, were sent home.
The team's white-ball coaches, Mike Hesson and Ashley Noffke, have taken charge of the red-ball team. Former captain Misbah-ul-Haq has resigned from the selection panel and stepped down as batting consultant at the National Cricket Academy in Lahore.
This shake-up has left the team's future uncertain, with many questioning the PCB's leadership and decision-making.
