LAHORE: More than two dozen former cricketers will hold consultations with Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi about country’s domestic cricket system. A local TV reported that the meeting will be likely held on Monday.
The television reported that around 35 former cricketers will provide feedback and recommendations about improvement in the domestic cricket structure to make it more attractive. During the meeting, the ex-cricketers will also be taken into confidence over three new tournaments by the name of “Champions”.
The expected meeting comes as the national side has been under scrutiny and subjected to severe criticism owing to their dismal performance in the T20 World Cup 2024 where Pakistan failed to even progress to the Super Eight stage.
During the mega event, Pakistan showcased below-par performance in all three departments and suffered an upset loss against the US and a subsequent disappointing defeat against India, resulting in their early elimination from the mega event.
The meeting comes days following the team’s white-ball coach Gary Kirsten submitted his assessment report to the PCB chairman about the team’s performance in the world cup.
