Pakistani captain made big allegations on PCB: Pakistan’s performance in the 2023 One-Day International (ODI) World Cup, hosted by India, has been disappointing. Following their loss to South Africa on Friday, reaching the semifinals is considered a challenging task for the team. Meanwhile, former Pakistan captain Rashid Latif has made a significant revelation concerning the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).
He has alleged that players have not received their salaries for the past five matches. Additionally, he claims that the board officials are not responding to the phone calls and messages from the current captain, Babar Azam.
Pakistani captain made big allegations on PCB: The former captain of Pakistan made a big allegation
Pakistani captain made big allegations on PCB: Let me tell you that an exciting match took place between Pakistan and South Africa in the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup on Saturday. During this game, both teams put up a tough fight. South Africa managed to defeat Pakistan by just one wicket with 16 balls remaining. This defeat has reduced Pakistan’s chances of making it to the semi-finals.
Now, Babar Azam’s team will have to rely on the results of the remaining matches. After this match, former Pakistan captain Rashid Latif made serious allegations against the PCB (Pakistan Cricket Board). Latif claimed that Babar Azam is sending messages to the PCB Chairman, but he is not receiving any response.
He also messaged Salman Naseer (PCB CEO) but received no reply. What is the reason that they are not getting a response from their captain? Furthermore, they are issuing a press release stating that central contracts will be revisited. Players have not received salaries for the last five months. Should the PCB pay attention to the players’ concerns?
Babar Azam can be removed from captaincy
Pakistani captain made big allegations on PCB: Babar Azam may lose his captaincy due to his poor performance in the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup. The PCB (Pakistan Cricket Board) has given indications of this effect. Meanwhile, the players are also not very happy with the board. Speaking on the matter, an insider revealed that if Pakistan somehow manages to qualify for the semi-finals, the chances of snatching the captaincy from Babar Azam will be reduced.
The insider said that if Pakistan can pull off a miracle and win all their remaining matches to qualify for the semi-finals of this World Cup, Babar may still have a chance to retain his captaincy, even if probably only in a limited-overs format.
Questions raised on Babar Azam decisions
Pakistani captain made big allegations on PCB: Before the World Cup, Pakistan and Sri Lanka jointly hosted the Asia Cup 2023. During this event, the Pakistan team could not secure a place in the semi-finals. The PCB (Pakistan Cricket Board) had given Babar Azam the right to choose his favorite players.
However, the team’s poor performance led to reports that PCB Chairman Zaka Ashraf ignored the advice of Misbah-ul-Haq, Mohammad Hafeez, and some other former players whom he had consulted. This was because Babar did not want changes in the team for the World Cup.
