Saeed Ajmal Accuses PCB of Setting Pakistan Cricket Back 10 Years
· Sports · Times of India, NDTV Sports
Former spinner Saeed Ajmal has publicly criticized the Pakistan Cricket Board for its handling of the national team. Ajmal blamed Director High Performance Aaqib Javed and head coach Mike Hesson for the team's recent struggles, alleging that the board's internal management is driven by egos. This follows Pakistan's heavy defeat against England in the Lord's Test and the subsequent decision to send seven players home. Ajmal argued that the board has demotivated players and failed to plan for the future. The board has not provided a direct rebuttal to these specific claims.
Why it matters
The public rift between a former star and the board reflects deep-seated management issues that continue to impact Pakistan's international cricket performance.
