Wondering how many will lose their jobs or decide to leave after this performance.
We asked Gemini to suggest one for Rizwan.

Assalamu Alaikum,
Today is a difficult day. The Champions Trophy 2025, played on our own soil, was a dream we all shared—a dream to bring joy to our nation and showcase the strength of Pakistan cricket. Regrettably, we fell short.
I stand before you with a heavy heart. As captain, I take full responsibility for our performance. We did not execute our plans, we did not rise to the occasion, and we did not deliver the results our nation deserves. For that, I sincerely apologize.
I know that words cannot fully express the disappointment we all feel. The pain of letting down our fans, who have always stood by us, is immense. You filled the stadiums, you cheered us on, and you believed in us. And we failed to repay that faith.
This tournament has forced me to reflect deeply. I have always given my absolute best, but perhaps, at this juncture, my best was not enough. Therefore, I have decided to step down as the captain of the Pakistan ODI team.
This decision was not made lightly. I love this team, and I love this nation. But I believe a fresh perspective and new leadership are needed to guide us forward. I will continue to serve Pakistan cricket as a player and will support the new captain in every way possible.
To my teammates—I know we are hurting. But we must learn from this experience. We must work harder, be stronger, and come back better.
To the Pakistan Cricket Board—thank you for the opportunity to lead. I am grateful for your support.
And to the fans—thank you for everything. Your passion is the lifeblood of Pakistan cricket. Please continue to support this team. They need you now more than ever.
May Allah bless Pakistan. Pakistan Zindabad.
