Mushtaq Ahmed and Misbah-ul-Haq Critique PCB's Management Amid Team OverhaulPreviousNext

Former Pakistan cricketer Mushtaq Ahmed expressed willingness to coach the national team but cited fear due to the Pakistan Cricket Board's (PCB) impulsive decisions and lack of job security, referencing recent mid-series sackings of players and coaches. Meanwhile, former captain and selector Misbah-ul-Haq criticized the PCB for treating local coaches with harsher scrutiny than foreign coaches and called for patience and long-term planning. Misbah also praised India's gradual cricket development, contrasting it with Pakistan's frequent personnel changes and reactive approach.
