Pakistan’s former cricket captain Shahid Afridi has revealed that Mohsin Naqvi, the recently appointed chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), has admitted that he lacks experience in cricket. Afridi, known for his candid opinions, shared this during an interview, emphasizing the need for experienced cricketing minds to lead the board.
Afridi expressed concerns over the administration of Pakistan cricket, stating that while Naqvi’s administrative capabilities might be strong, cricketing knowledge is crucial for running the PCB effectively. He urged the inclusion of former cricketers in key decision-making roles to ensure the game’s betterment.
Mohsin Naqvi, who also serves as Pakistan’s Interior Minister, was recently appointed PCB chairman, a decision that has sparked debate within the cricketing community. Critics argue that the appointment of a non-cricketer could hinder Pakistan’s progress on the international stage.
Afridi’s statement adds to the growing discussions about the need for cricketing expertise in PCB leadership. Fans and analysts now await Naqvi’s next steps in addressing these concerns and shaping the future of Pakistan cricket.
