'Everything is Taken for Granted': Ex-Pakistan Cricketer Calls for Strict Action, Coach Like Gambhir to Revive Country's Cricket
Former cricketers have been vocal on social media platforms, demanding a complete overhaul in the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) as well as the teams across formats.

Pakistan Cricket is currently undergoing massive turmoil. The limited-overs side was already in hot waters following the debacles in two consecutive world cups. Adding to their woes, Bangladesh thrashed the Test team 2-0 in a home series, leading to an unending uproar in the country’s cricket fraternity.

Former cricketers have been vocal on social media platforms, demanding a complete overhaul in the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) as well as the teams across formats. Joining the bandwagon, former spin bowler Danish Kaneria has suggested that the team needs a tough coach like Gautam Gambhir to solve their issues both on and off the field.

Speaking to Republic, the board keeps changing captains as everything in Pakistan Cricket is taken lightly.

“Everything is taken for granted; that’s why the downfall of Pakistan cricket has gone through making captains, changing captains. That will not work. Stick to your captain stick with him,” Kaneria said.

“Okay, I have made him the captain for one year. I will ask him. I will ask him to give me an answer after one year. Nobody will touch him you have full support from me, but you need to perform. If you don’t perform, you go out, so that’s the thing you have to make tough decisions. Why, if you don’t make tough decisions, things will not work,” he added.

Drawing a parallel between Pakistan and other teams across the world, Kaneria said his country’s team need a strong coach to make things better before things go out of hand.

“Why today other teams are doing so well Why is the Indian team is doing so well? They had a Rahul Dravid who worked with the team very well now they have Gautam Gambir, a fantastic cricketer and fantastic guy. The way he reacts, he tells on the face. He doesn’t go back and do backbiting; he’s on the face straight away. This is how you have to be. You have to be strong, and like a strong person, you have to make the decision on the face, not at the back,” said Kaneria.

What's your reaction?
