PCB’s mess..!

Few mistakes of Shahid Afridi and PCB which brought disgrace to the nation..!

1. Awfully misread the Eden gardens pitch.

2. Wrong selection of playing eleven, which was packed with pacers.

3. Wrong batting order allowed Sarfraz (4 down) only 6 balls and Hafeez (5 down) 5 balls to play.

4. Afridi (8 runs in 14 balls) who came 1 down played with the lowest SR of 57.14

5. Although, M Amir who bowled with the best economy rate (3.66) among the 12 bowlers of both the sides, yet he was not allowed to bowl his full quota of 4 overs.

6. Afridi with economy rate of 6.25 bowled his full quota of 4 overs.

7. Sami who took maximum 50% (2 out of 4) wickets was taken off & only bowled 2 overs.

8. When off spinner Shoaib Malik was called for bowling he was not given a slip fielder, particularly for the left handed batsman Yuvraj Singh.

9. Umar Akmal was not sent 1 down.

10. When Sharjeel (70.83) and Shahzad (89.28) were batting slowly, no instructions sent to push the accelerator.

11. Shahid Afridi’s refusal to include Salam Butt proved dearly to the Pakistani team (as our openers failed to perform as per the expectations) reportedly on personal reasons.

12. The chairman PCB’s decision to appoint Shahid Afridi captain in advance for two years also proved highly faulty and damaging for the team.

13. The chairman PCB also made an extremely poor decision of making two serving and contracted players as advisors on the BOG, which caused more chaos in the PCB.
14. In order to save his own skin, the worthy chairman PCB, started blaming the coach and captain, even during the period our team’s matches are being played, in the on going tournament.

In view of the foregoing, the Patron in Chief PCB, Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif, must immediately dissolve the entire PCB set up and give a chance to the head of the new PCB, to take all hiring and firing decisions, rather than the old PCB management taking any further steps, which turned everything to dust, it touched.
