The imminent death of Pakistan Cricket: Mohsin Naqvi – The biggest culprit

[moghul]

Since our defeat from India last Sunday , so much has been said about the players , coaches, selectors and so many people involved in the destruction of Pakistan cricket, but surprisingly , NO media person or our " experts" on TV and other channels talk about the real culprit , the boss of failed cricket mafia, Mohsin Naqvi. He himself and PCB's direct and indirect payees , so called " experts " and "mentors" have been talking about the need for surgery in Pakistan cricket and asking Naqvi to perform the surgery . To save Pakistan cricket from its imminent death , first of all , this guy has to go . He should be surgically detached from Pakistan cricket followed by radiation therapy and if needed chemotherapy. All the cricket followers and supports of Pakistan cricket should demand for his removal and send him back to his day job.

I understand the political realities in Pakistan and not asking anything unrealistic , hence , I think if they have to bring back someone close to current government , Najam Sethi will not be a bad choice.

As long as Mohsin Naqvi stays at the helm of the affairs of Pakistan cricket, no one can stop it from dying.

 

[emranabbas]

The team selection favors star power over merit, with Babar, Rizwan, Rauf, Shaheen, and Naseem consistently making the lineup.Naqvi's only mistake was not sacking these five players.

The tournament loss cannot be solely blamed on him, as these same five players have been part of eight tournament defeats since the 2019 World Cup, including Asia Cups. It's not as if Pakistan was a dominant force, and Naqvi came in and ruined everything.

And we all know the real reason you want Naqvi removed, it has nothing to do with cricket and everything to do with your bias in favor of a cult you follow

 

[Slim]

Lol, its always the chairmans. Starting from Najam, Zaka to Mohsin (who is a very capable chairman).

Never Babar, Rizwan, Shaheen saya mafia group or the seeds of Misbah Azhar Ali, Asad Shafiq. The real leeches in the system.

Pakistani fans just suck so hard, they cannot help but politicise everything

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Changing one person won't change anything. Another stooge (the zakas, swthis etc) will come in his place The whole country, sytstem and people have become rotten to the core. It will take generations to fix if we start tomorrow but I don't see that happening any time soon. We should just take the odd win and shut up already.

I do not like Mohsin Naqvi and let me be upfront with you.

Now, respond to me logically to my argument.

Mohsin Naqvi is the Interior Minister of Pakistan and needs to deal with these challenges.

Pakistan Cricket and the performance of the National team has reached rockbottom.

Mohsin Naqvi is also the the Chief of PCB!

How is it possible for him to look after Cricket even if he is a Superman??? Is his priority to bring peace, safety and security to a nation of 250M people OR repair stadiums and uplift the performance of the Cricket Team?

Once again, make a sound rational and logical argument as to how is Mohsin Naqvi both the Interior Minister of Pakistan and Chief of PCB at this particular time in Pakistan?

Is this really hard to understand???

I don't blame you or anyone living in Pakistan for not speaking up against the butcher of Pakistan cricket, its hard, people are scared of saying anything against him, you never know what can happen.

 

[Savak]

Mohd Amir on Geo mentioned that when Kirsten told the team in USA that the team needs to modernize and change their approach, embrace modern cricket. One of the senior players when talking among themselves commented "these coaches, chairmen, selectors will all come and go but we are here to stay"

Absolutely the players need to be mauled and bought down to earth which means axing them from all formats, suspending their Nocs for T20 leagues, telling them to play domestic cricket, Shaheen's team if they wish to make a case for getting recalled to the Pakistani team again.

 

[moghul]

All the major teams has progressed a lot and has adapted the modern approach in training and playing the game , Pakistan is stuck in 80s . The biggest mistake , out of many , Naqvi committed was to let the modern coaches like Kirsten and Jason Gillispe go.

Agree, Chairman doesn't need to get involve in cricketing affairs, it's a job of players to perform as they are getting everything they need. The 5 players you have named in addition to players like Shadab, Iftikhar, Imam are the biggest culprit in this whole disaster. They got everything from PCB, consistent chances since last 7-8 years, played / bowled at position of their choice. Just compare how unprofessionally players like Wasim Jnr, Mir Hamza, Mohammed Abbas, Abdullah Shafiq, Salman Agha, Saud Shakeel, Kamran Ghulam, Aamir Jamal, Irfan Niazi, Abbas Afridi are treated by PCB in comparison to above players.

Players like Fakhar & Saim doesn't know how to field safely without getting injured, why these injuries doesn't happen to SENA players while fielding. Specially Fakhar who came to the team after long time but got injured after playing 4 matches. What kind of fitness level he has?

Sometimes I feel even Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Netherlands, Zimbabwe players are more committed to their nation than these self obsessed Pakistani players

 

[BouncerGuy]

Why not. If Naqvi is not the culprit then who else is??? He has no idea about cricket works. Changing coaches, captains for fun and it has cost Pakistan big time. Time to move on from Naqvi first and then we can talk about smaller problems.

Unfortunately this is how things are run in dictatorships. People are not selected on merit and the powerful can do what they want. They are not accountable to anyone therefore they can tinker with the system thinking they can fix it but end up destroying everything.

Naqvi is the Interior Minister

He is not going anywhere as he is the 2nd most powerful person in Pakistan

 

[BunnyRabbit]

The ones before him, Zaka, Sethi and Ramiz equally pathetic as well and caused a lot of uncertainty and divide in the team with their new policies favoring a certain individuals etc.
The only way to save Pak Cricket is to remove PCB from the control of the government and make it an autonomous body. It will avoid changing the heads of all organizations (including PCB) once a new govt takes over. And that new chair brings his own team of spoons displacing others. It doesn't give enough time for the previous team to carry out their long term plans and it doesn't let the new ones to do much apart from giving statements and overhauling everything either.
Without framework or completion of long term tasks, cricket will continue to collapse.
PCB is just the microcosm of our entire country. It is in the news and on the tv, which is why it gets discussed the most.

I won’t be responding to your post because it’s politically biased. You, along with a few others, have been pushing an agenda on this forum for months. Your like or dislike for Naqvi has nothing to do with his job, nor do you genuinely care about Pakistan. The reality is, you dislike anyone who isn’t from the party you support, and now you’re just acting bitter about it.

 

[Rana]

Changing one person won't change anything. Another stooge (the zakas, swthis etc) will come in his place The whole country, sytstem and people have become rotten to the core. It will take generations to fix if we start tomorrow but I don't see that happening any time soon. We should just take the odd win and shut up already.

I think we need Govinda Aunty no.1 as chairman

Exactly! Many people refuse to blame the players we've mentioned or admit that they’re just rubbish because most of these players were brought in by Ramiz and Misbah under imran khans government everything has to be political these lot. Their constant complaining never ends.

In the last 6 years everything has been changed from chairman to coaches to the chaprasi the only thing that's not been changed are these 5 players Babar, Rizwan, Rauf, Shaheen, and Naseem people just need to admit they are just rubbish than blaming so and so person

First time in history coaches and captains have been changed? Coach and captain are going to come and go and they are not going to hold babars finger and make him perfom about time he man's up and take responsibility

They also said ‘we’ve been playing for many many years, who are you Mr. Kirsten’ this was reported to.

 

[emranabbas]

No it all started with ramiz raja no political party has right to meddle with cricket affairs and make ramiz raja chairman based on friendship if pti can do then all other parties can do it too

I don’t support Naqvi politically but this is true, we’ve had issues with this core bunch long before he arrived; he needs to act now however. Javed Miandad summed it up best, you can blame whoever you want, these players simply don’t have any passion, even when facing India.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

I don't like his politics but feel he is our only hope.

He is the only one with the power and authority to clean up and put processes place and the only one who can push back on the ex player cabal that has ruined us.

But he will need to be bold and in it for the long haul.

His decision to sack Kirsten and Gillespie was the wrong one and will be difficult to recover from, but if he is clever he will realise that it was due to ex player mafia that he was led down that path.

Tell me how long australia are playing their pace trio or england playing their fast bowlers or even india you dont see their fans saying change them in pakistan you guys always want to change if they bring sufiyan you guys will go after him as well never happy with any players.

 

[shaz619]

No it all started with ramiz raja no political party has right to meddle with cricket affairs and make ramiz raja chairman based on friendship if pti can do then all other parties can do it too

Ramiz Raja played a huge role in inflating everyones ego’s and giving complete power to a numpty, he set this expectation and Rizwan demanded the same benefits

Passion etc is just the wrong words man. If they roared like lions they still would have played like pussayy ( cats).

We don't have the skillset, mind set and infrastructure to compete. It is a long overhaul. Players are at fault but they are products of a system that spat them out after many years.

They are not good enough, but lesser talented players have succeeded at the highest level. If you have some passion, you would attempt to be more proactive at least, did Azhar Ali have more talent than Babar Azam? Sarfraz wasn’t a talented player either. Pakistan has lacked in all the area’s you mentioned but we’ve still had success despite those problems which will never be resolved, but we’re not maximising our resources by continuously backing a selfish set-up stuck in the 90’s.

[Major]

• Forced the return of Imad Wasim and Mohammad Amir despite their retirements.
• Appointed Shan Masood as captain, then brought back Babar Azam under pressure.
• Foreign coaches Gary Kirsten and Jason Gillespie came and left quickly.
• Preferred Aqib Javed, leading to instability in the coaching setup.
• Pakistan lost to Bangladesh at home, a historic embarrassment.
• Fakhar Zaman Injury Fiasco

Lets not forget how he got played like a fiddle by the BCCI

What burden of proof? And what do you mean “you people”

Why did Naqvi make Rizwan captain? Why don’t you explain that?

Why don’t you add

• Appointed ajeeb o gharib captain Rizwan

 

[emranabbas]

• team was losing before amir and imad, with amir and imad and after amir and imad
• if Babar can't handle pressure after playing 10+ years of cricket then he should take retirement
• not the first time this has happened, mickey also was sacked for a local coach. do you remember? then you supported this move
• teams been instable since mickey left
• Pakistan lost to Zimbabwe, west indies and sri lanka under misbah

 

[Asif321]

Let Rizwan take responsibility first
Then Babar for having nasha of captaincy and destroying harmony in team

 

[RyanRyan10]

• Forced the return of Imad Wasim and Mohammad Amir despite their retirements.

• Fakhar Zaman Injury Fiasco

Applying this logic, re appointment of Babar as a T20I skipper put pressure on Shaheen. He was sacked after just 1 t20i series.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

The players should take responsibility. His job is to provide facilities and expertise so they can perform to their fullest.

Naqvi's job is to focus on the macro.

 

[shaz619]

Naqvi should be held accountable, but the real criminals who deserve to be punished severely are Rizwan and Babar. If Naqvi bans both for life due to their corrupt activities then I am willing to give him a chance as a major Pakistan cricket stakeholder.

So you want the same thing to be repeated? dropping players while the chairman continue to make mistake?

Corruption? Do you even know what corruption is?

How are Babar and Rizwan involved in corruption?

Players cannot be banned for poor performance, if they do so, they can go to Appeal courts or CAS for an appeal.

 

[charlie007]

When has ANY politician in the world ever taken accountability for his own actions? NEVER. On top of that, he’s the Interior Minister, probably the fourth most powerful institution in Pakistan after the Army, PM, and maybe President (arguably).
A Zaka Ashraf or a Najam Sethi can be pushed out, not an Interior Minister.
He will select a few people to pin the blame on and new hopes will rekindle in fans in time accepting the people removed were the ones responsible for all mess. Until the cycle repeats, that is.

Whether or not you “give him a chance” doesn’t change the fact that he is already the most influential Pak cricket stakeholder. You are burying both Babar and Rizwan without any proven guilt - they may or may not be guilty but first bring a charge and have it proven before hanging them already, no?

If a non-performing player is selected again and again , you can blame selectors and the one who appoints the selectors and not the players. Any player selected will not refuse to be selected even if he is not performing . You can criticize Babar and Rizwan for not performing and can ask to drop them but the real culprits are again the bunch of spineless selectors and the shameless Chairman, who is having a good time and riding on Rolls Royce while team is losing every single match it plays.

Corruption has occurred on and off the pitch by those two and they need to be monitored by a private investigator, I am confident the two share the same bedroom since you as the haram police have entered the fray when it comes to piety for Pakistani citizens

Poor performance is not corruption . Selecting wrong players and selectors for your own liking and enjoying a luxurious vacation on PCB expenses including riding on Rolls-Royce while the team is losing IS corruption.

If you believe that simply changing the chairman will instantly make Babar and Rizwan score at a run-a-ball or Shaheen, Rauf, and Naseem take wickets effortlessly, then you're being incredibly naive and not someone to be taken seriously. It's obvious that people like you are using the Pakistan cricket team as a cover to push your political agenda.

 

[shaz619]

Whether or not you “give him a chance” doesn’t change the fact that he is already the most influential Pak cricket stakeholder. You are burying both Babar and Rizwan without any proven guilt - they may or may not be guilty but first bring a charge and have it proven before hanging them already, no?

Thank you for your comment, after reconsideration, I’ve decided that at the bare minimum, we need a full investigation into the off field activities of Babar & Rizwan by an independent authority. They should not be eligible for selection until the investigation has been completed.

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

Pakistan cricket from the top to the bottom is mama chacha bhanja bhatija and baap beta family network.
I have pointed time and time again, 50% of your centrally contracted cricketers have had family members in the Pakistan cricket in the past.

FAMILY PARCHI is strong in Pakistan cricket. Eliminate this and see the growth.

If a non-performing player is selected again and again , you can blame selectors and the one who appoints the selectors and not the players. Any player selected will not refuse to be selected even if he is not performing . You can criticize Babar and Rizwan for not performing and can ask to drop them but the real culprits are again the bunch of spineless selectors and the shameless Chairman, who is having a good time and riding on Rolls Royce while team is losing every single match it plays.

I hear you - my post was on corruption allegations without presenting any proof which is different from poor performance (which is totally true). But given who Naqvi is in the establishment, he’ll stay so find other ways to get better.

I understand your feelings but someone other than a PCT fan needs to make that allegation otherwise all this will remain on this forum. There will be no investigation and they will continue if anyone powerful enough doesn’t believe there is corruption. I’m giving my objective view from a neutral/ outsider perspective.

Still haven't answered the question!

Disagree with above.

Why can't they? Is there some kind of law?

 

[Rana]

Why can't they? Is there some kind of law?

It’s a law in Youth Delulu Land

 

[Major]

Corruption has occurred on and off the pitch by those two and they need to be monitored by a private investigator, I am confident the two share the same bedroom since you as the haram police have entered the fray when it comes to piety for Pakistani citizens

Again, plz proof of corruption instead of throwing random words

 

[LordJames]

Why can't they? Is there some kind of law?

Its not about the Law.

Its what is happening on the ground. You can be President and Interior Minister and Chief of PCB but can a person do justice to all 3 positions?

In the present circumstances (stated twice) Mohsin Naqvi or anyone else cannot do both jobs

 

[Major]

Poor performance is not corruption . Selecting wrong players and selectors for your own liking and enjoying a luxurious vacation on PCB expenses including riding on Rolls-Royce while the team is losing IS corruption.

Exactly, but @shaz619 probably doenst understand this

 

[shaz619]

Again, plz proof of corruption instead of throwing random words

I will build the case iA

 

[shaz619]

Exactly, but @shaz619 probably doenst understand this

It’s not just performances, I did note on and off field concerns

It all starts some where, we as fans need to be vocal about this and look into it, who knows, it could get picked up. Are you not aware of the YES movement?

@Rana @RedwoodOriginal

 

[Hikaru]

Let's be honest, there's no player pool. Send BCCI administrators to run Pakistan Cricket and the results will be equally bad. There won't be any immediate fixes.

 

[Minnowbasher]

Never blame the system always blame the chairman.
You could make a dog chairman of BCCI, India would still be a great cricket team.
Problem is the whole domestic structure, lack of facilities, lack of grassroots high level club cricket.
Say what you like about our current players, they are the best we got with the system in place.

@Rana @RedwoodOriginal

Any YES movement comes from power of position or money- if enough fans can unite and make it a movement, especially one that is on social media and TV, it could be successful. Otherwise it will remain buried here.
From the YouTube shows and social media currently it is all about overall performance of team, Babar, and Rizwan but nothing on their alleged corruption.

Our system rewards the boot polishers with positions for services rendered. I laugh when idiots compare Ramiz Raja with the mafia henchmen like Sethi, The money laundering guy from Sindh (name escaped me) and this disgraceful scum.

 

[Kianig89]

So Rizwan and Babar being accused of corruption, Allah o Akbar. The hate for these players has gone higher than Himalayas and deeper than Arabian Sea.

Knock some sense and stop these baseless allegations

 

[LordJames]

Mohsin Naqvi should resign as Chairman of PCB, Why?

Mohsin Naqvi has two roles in Pakistan at this time:
​

1. Interior Minister of Pakistan: In this role, there are at least 4 challenges he is facing because the Interior Minister is the head of all local Intelligence, Police & Paramilitary organizations:
   1. Insurgency in Baluchistan (44% landmass of Pakistan) where BLP (Terrorist organization) is hunting and killing Punjabees (residents from the largest province by population) of Pakistan​
   2. Insurgency in KP where TTP (Tehreek-e-Taliban-Pakistan) is making more audacious attacks into Pakistan (further South)​
   3. PAF (Pakistan Air force) is conducting cross border bombing runs into Afghanistan where Taliban (Afghanistan) is providing safe havens to TTP and bombing runs are organized based on Intelligence gathered by ISI (military and IB & FIA (both civilians organizations) headed by Interior Minister​
   4. Despite arrest of Imran Khan, the resistance against the Government by his party is neither dying nor decreasing.​
2. Chairperson of PCB: All facets of Pakistan Cricket are under his direct responsibility and you all know how this is going.​

Pakistan now has the highest Terrorism rates in South Asia with multiple travel advisories in place from multiple countries, here is UK

Under the circumstances NO MAN can handle these two full time jobs.

Mohsin Naqvi's resignation will not miracolusly fix Pakistan Cricket issues but it will give someone a chance to devote his attention full-time and 100% to the issue.

There are cold hard facts, please argue from a factual perspective.​

According Diesel PK state has no writ in Balochistan in many areas. But we have an interior Minister swanning around in Dubai or America doing bugger all except to promote the mafia. Each day our soldiers are murdered but the ISI are busy fighting IK. What the hell is going on.

No he will remain in charge. Its the players that need to be replaced.

 

[Bewal Express]

No he will remain in charge. Its the players that need to be replaced.

What is his qualification? Maybe you can outline anything that he has done in his career that qualifies him to be running our cricket board. The gorm appointed coaches and then sacked them and paid huge amounts to in wages and never allowed them to their jobs, he appointed the captain and the one before, and called up Faheem Ashraf to please Nawaz Sharif.
This walking disaster needs to get lost after this embarrassment, 2nd one within a year.

He is there to deal with the macro.His role is to provide the players with the best support possible. It's up to the players to deliver.

At this stage I wouldn't even get rid of Aaqib. It's pointless. Focus on building a new team and a method.

 

[LordJames]

Remain in charge? So he will resign as the Interior Minister so someone else can handle the rising tide of Terrorism, deaths and other challenges so he can focus on Cricket?

Does it matter? Do you have a counter to the fact I have quoted?
My age has nothing to do with the fact that Pakistan cricket team is literally run like a family business with addition of close friends here and there.

He’s also the head of Pakistan’s narcotics department, which explains a lot of his decision making when it comes to cricket.

 

[moghul]

Why can't they? Is there some kind of law?

You don't need to make a law to stop every single stupidity . Naqvi doesn't own the country and cannot pick himself to be head of every department , neither his backers should be making this incompetent and corrupt person in-charge of every important department . Naqvi looks like has no interest and basic knowledge of cricket , his only interest in cricket is due to the large sum of money in PCB's account. He is making good use of it and enjoying Rolls Royce ride.
