Afaque Ahmed | 14 years ago | Reply This is our cricket board, Well i will say it disaster board of Pakistan. where cricketers not grows but distroyed. how many player we lost just because of our board wrong decision. I must mention here that all great player who comes to Pakistan cricket they came in very young age. Wasim, Waqar, Inzamam, Miandad, Afridi but there is no production of great player by our board. On other hand the board is not confidence about the decision he made. Why the players are banded if the board could not defend his decision. This wrong decision takes from us a great M.Yousouf and i will say that decision is main cause that we didn't defend the T20 title, all big player were banded Ranan and Shoaib are assets of pakistan cricket, for T20 and ODI's. They didn't deserve that kind of distrubance in them carrier.
