Pakistan has always been a politically unstable country. The country’s political power has been shifting for several days. Which also affected the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB). With the change of government, the cricket directors of the country also changed, which was a massive loss for cricket. Former cricketer Shahid Afridi wants a PCB, free of politics in cricket development.
There have been major changes in Pakistan’s politics recently. The country’s Prime Minister, Imran Khan, has been ousted. As a result, there is a fear of losing the post of PCB president. According to Pakistani media reports, Ramiz Raja may lose his post soon. Earlier, former cricketer and Prime Minister Imran Khan had appointed Ramiz Raja as the board chairman.
If that news is true, then the new man will sit in the chair of the president of the Pakistan Cricket Board. At the same time, Ramiz’s proposed development projects will be in danger of being cancelled. Ramiz has been working to change Pakistan cricket since he took over, and he has already won the admiration of cricket fans with one laudable initiative after another.
Meanwhile, if new people arrive, the chances of those plans being implemented are uncertain. The country’s former star Shahid Afridi has realised that. Demanding an independent cricket board, Afridi said: “I think the PCB should be independent from the government. It is better not to have government interference in determining the chairman and CEO of the board. It is necessary to introduce a completely neutral and own election system. “
Politics and cricket in Pakistan are closely intertwined. The chip patron of the PCB is the Prime Minister of the country. Therefore, as a result of the change of government, there is a hint of change in the leadership of the cricket board. However, this change will have a negative impact on Pakistan cricket.
Afridi said, “This is why Pakistan cricket faces many problems. The divisions have a big role in the country’s domestic cricket. But if the board has introduced any new system, it should be given a suitable time to test now. “
