Need of the hour – Immediate revamping of the PCB..!

Respected Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif Sahab,

اسلام و علیکم

Sir,

I want to urgently inform you about the public anger, utter disappointment and frustration, about the government of the day and the PCB, after our cricket teams continuous pathetic performances in the ongoing Asia Cup, particularly, in the last nights’s disgusting & humiliating defeat, handed over to our team, by the Bangladeshi cricket players, in the Mirpur stadium, Dhaka.

All these continuous series of cricket debacles are happening due to the total and collective failure of the PCB’s top management in developing the game on merit, forward thinking, checks and balances, accountability and transparency; which ironically consists of not one, but three chairmans namely M/S Shahryar Khan, Najam Sethi and Shakeel Sheikh; who are designated as chairman PCB, chairman executive committee and chairman cricket committee respectively.

The inherent problems of the PCB are that it’s top brass is totally out of sync with the modern day demands of the game; and the organisation has three power centres, run by the three chairmans detailed above.

Sir, the nation not wrongly, also thinks that Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif Sahab, being the Patron in chief of the PCB, has not made the right choices of all the personnel appointed in the PCB and its board of governors.

Sir, enough is enough and action is better than inaction. As such, it is never too late to correct the course, for the sake of the image and prestige of our beloved motherland, called The Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

Kindly immediately bring these long series of cricketing disasters to an immediate end, heaped upon the nation by the PCB, continuing from the debacle in the ODI World Cup 2015, then the most insulting white wash during the last BD tour, then continuous defeats from the teams of Sri Lanka, England and NZ, as there is no need to wait for further set backs, during the coming T20 World Cup: by forthwith dissolving the entire PCB set up; and giving the reigns of the PCB to some dead honest, clean, educated and world renowned corporate experienced cricketer/person who must possess forward vision, to rebuild the PCB from its ashes; and make the PCB a world class professional set up, soonest possible.

Else, please don’t expect a defective, obsolete and redundant factory (PCB) to produce a product (players) to compete in the world arena.

Best Regards,

Syed Nayyar Uddin Ahmad
