Har Lamha Purjosh and Basit Ali stated that if Pakistan’s cricket does not undergo surgery soon, the PCB Chairman should resign.
“We appreciate his efforts in revamping the grounds, but now it’s the Chairman’s responsibility. He pledged to fix the cricket structure, and this is the perfect time to make those changes,” he said.
Basit stressed that if Naqvi fails to take action against PCB officials and players, it will be regrettable.
He warned that if Pakistan cricket doesn’t undergo the necessary surgery, the team could continue to be eliminated in the first round of future events.
