Back when there was only print media, it was easy for celebrities to walk away from anything they said, “My statement was taken out of context” was a common phrase. Channels abounded, everything someone said became part of the archives and could be used again at any time.
Now it is not easy for someone to go back from his statement, with the advent of social media, it has happened that if someone has said something and then retracts his statement, he is shamed by attaching clips to both statements, but now it seems Well-known personalities are also becoming “embarrassment-proof”, you give them a million feelings, they save their lives by giving some explanation, the statements of Abdul Razzaq and Wahab Riaz have been mentioned a lot in recent days, both of them Babar had questioned Azam’s leadership skills but then again entrusted him with the responsibility.
Even today’s young journalists do not hold back and are used to speaking frankly, when a press conference was held in Lahore, the two selectors were asked the reason for such a quick change of opinion, instead of being embarrassed, they gave strange explanations, Abdul Razzaq. Immensely impressed with stage plays, he was recently seen trying comedy during a TV show, his lottery was opened and he got a new job in PCB. V’s comments do not need to be taken seriously, since Mohsin Naqvi came to PCB Wahab Ke To Ware Nyare Haye, the relationship with him during his ministry days in caretaker government became stronger.
Now, along with being a selector, he will also do foreign tours as a senior manager, with the advent of TV channels, former cricketers have found alternative employment, the one who makes the most noise is called to the PCB, Muhammad Yusuf said. A great example is, since those who came to the board were deprived of listening to his harsh comments, this selection committee has the “honor” of having two former provincial ministers in it. It is not rocket science to know how Bilal Afzal got involved, the squad selected by the selection committee for the series against New Zealand includes all the star cricketers, on the other hand the Kiwis are missing 14 key players.
It should have happened that a team consisting of new players was selected but it did not happen due to the fear of defeat, it is true that the World Cup is near but what will you prepare by beating the children? New Zealand felt very bad when South Africa sent Novaztim to their country, what are they doing now? It is true that no one can be stopped from making huge IPL fortunes, but the Kiwis should also have some sense of self-respect, not even being fed and spending time watering or clapping, before every series. The MoU signed by both the boards is written to select the best cricketers but unfortunately this is not the case anymore due to the leagues, you charge huge amount of tickets from the fans to see the best players in action. has the right.
In such a series, the A team should be fielded so that the others also learn some lessons, do you think that if players like Babar Azam, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Mohammad Rizwan and Shadab Khan do not go to New Zealand, will their board not say anything? You guys are so passionate about cricket, if I ask you the names of 5 cricketers from the Kiwi team coming to Pakistan, you will find it difficult to tell, Dan Foxcroft, Cole McConchie, William O’Rourke, Ben Sears, Zachary Fox, Cricketers like Tim Robinson will compete with Babar, Fakhar Zaman, Iftikhar Ahmed, Imad Wasim, Mohammad Amir, Shaheen, Rizwan, Naseem Shah and Shadab, does it look like a match? Well, there is no trust in the Pakistan team, it has been our tradition to send rookie cricketers as stars, let’s see what happens this time, but 4-5 big names should have been given complete rest in this series.
They should be thankful that no match was held in Karachi, otherwise only the security personnel would have seen the match in the National Stadium, Rawalpindi and Lahore might have a crowd, but how will they receive their money, there is still time for the selectors in the travel reserve. Some of the cricketers involved should be invited and given the opportunity to play the matches. However, when it is known that the star players will not come during the IPL, why do they keep the unmatchable series? They have started giving preference to leagues over stripes, thankfully this trend has not come in Pakistan so far, the main reason is not getting the opportunity to participate in IPL, look at South Africa, they have completely stopped giving importance to mutual series. According to him, his own league is the first priority, other countries will gradually start doing the same, then the time will come when international matches will be held only in the form of ICC events instead of series.
Indian cricketers earn an incalculable amount of money, the income of Pakistani cricketers is not less, they also get money from PSL along with huge monthly salary, match fee, sponsorship etc. However, cricketers from countries like New Zealand have their eyes on IPL If they want to save the talent, then these boards also have to pay good compensation to the players, along with the ICC should make a policy regarding the international leagues as well. , otherwise the end of the mutual series doesn’t seem too far away.
