Pakistan Cricket team had a poor end to 2022 after losing the home Test series against England. Babar Azam and his men even failed to win a single Test that year. As a result, fans slammed the skipper and then PCB Chairman, Ramiz Raja. However, PCB took bold action and sacked the former Pakistan cricketer.
Then, they appointed Najam Sethi as the new Chairman of PCB. However, Ramiz Raja was not happy with the way he got sacked by the Board officials. He slammed PCB for their unprofessional behavior. Now, he has taken a fresh dig at the new PCB Chairman while interacting with the Pakistani TV channel Geo Super.
“What is the use of a non-cricketer in cricket?” - Ramiz Raja on Najam Sethi
During that interaction, Ramiz Raja said: "If you don't give enough respect to this great sport, the future is going to be very dark. It's not right when you don't let a system run smoothly and come to run the country's cricket with the help of nepotism and politics."
"You changed the constitution for the heck of it... to bring someone, perhaps your loyalist in. What is the use of a non-cricketer in cricket?... this should be the debate. This field is ours, we know what to do. We don't need crutches to run cricket like this administration is doing," Raja added.
Earlier, Ramiz Raja slammed PCB in a live fan forum on his official YouTube channel. He said: "To accommodate one person, Sethi to be precise, they had to change the entire constitution (of the PCB). I have not seen this anywhere in the world. It has been done in the middle of a season when teams are visiting Pakistan. They have changed the chief selector, who had played Test cricket. At 2 am at night, he (Sethi) tweets that Ramiz Raja is gone. This is my playing field. It hurts. They did not allow me to take my stuff out of the office. They don't have any interest in cricket. The constitution has been bulldozed. It is political victimization and vendetta. There will be no place for excellence when there is no continuity,"
