Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi expressed disappointment in the Green Shirts after the loss against India, saying that this poor performance indicates the need for a “major surgery”.
Speaking to journalists after the Pakistan vs India match at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, Naqvi said that the “defeat against India was disappointing in every sense”.
The PCB chairman said that he “knows what is going on in the team and what are the reasons for losing”.
“It seemed that a minor surgery would work but after this bad performance, I’m now sure that a major surgery is required. The nation will soon see a major overhaul,” said Naqvi.
The chairman further said that their biggest challenge is to improve the team’s performance as it is currently at the lowest level.
Speaking about the upcoming events, Naqvi said that they have to prepare a team for the Champions Trophy 2025. “The time has come to give a chance to the outside talent,” he asserted.
“We have to make the Pakistani cricket team one of the best in the world. The nation does not expect such a disappointing performance from the cricket team,” said Naqvi.
Pakistan on Sunday suffered a humiliating loss against the arch-rivals as they lost by six runs despite an impressive performance by the bowlers who restricted the opponents to 119 after winning the toss.
