‘Isse accha U-19 ke bacchon ko khilao taaki haarenge toh afsos nhi hoga’: Ex-Pakistan cricketer rips apart Pakistan Cricket Team
England register an 8-wicket win over Pakistan in the third Test on Tuesday to register a 3-0 clean sweep. With that, they also became the first team to complete a 3-0 whitewash in Pakistan. Following the drubbing, several cricket pundits slammed Babar Azam and Co. for their dismal performance in the series.
Pakistan were playing without their senior fast bowlers but former Pakistan cricketers believed that they should have performed better as they were playing in their home conditions. Former spinner, Danish Kaneria also made a critical remark about Pakistan Cricket Team.
He said that the touring sides shouldn’t come to Pakistan with their ‘A’ teams so that Pakistan won’t have to suffer such humiliating defeats. He went on to add that it would be really difficult for Pakistan to even beat the second-string sides, let alone the main teams.
“Jo bhi teams ab next time Pakistan ka daura karengi, please apni ‘A’ teams mat lekar aayiega, kyun ki hume iss tarah ki zillat nahi dekhni padegi. Aap apni ‘C’ teams hi lekar aaiyega, kyun ki usse hi badi mushkil se khel ke shayad jeet sakte hain. (It is my request to other countries not to send their A team to Pakistan. Otherwise, we will have to face such embarrassment again and again. Please send us your ‘C’ team so that we somehow manage to win. We no longer have the ability to win. We don’t have any quality players or superstars in the team.),” said Danish Kaneria on his YouTube channel.
Kaneria, further, slammed the Pakistan Cricket management for the team’s poor performances and also requested them to play with ‘Under-19’ team instead of the senior team as they won’t feel that bad even if they lose.
“Humari team ki approach hai ki apna karo kyunki team mein jagah banani hai. Koi hai poochne wala inko? Management mein itne bade log baithe hain jo itni badi badi baatein karte hain. Hum doosre logon ke liye toh bhut bolte hain ki inki cricket aisi hai, humari game kaisi hai? Humari cricket ka toh bedagarak karke rakh diya. Jiss tarah se hum cricket khel rahe hain, mujhe lagta hai poora revamp karne ki zarurat hai. Isse accha U-19 ke bacchon ko khilao taaki haarenge bhi toh afsos nhi hoga. (The Pakistani players are only concerned about their own performances and not the team,” he said. “There is nobody to question them. We talk a lot about other teams, but why not take a look at our cricket instead? Pakistan cricket is sinking. There has to be a complete revamp. We should send our U-19 team instead. Even if they lose, it won’t be disappointing.),” said Kaneria.
Notably, England toured Pakistan for a Test series for the first time since 2005. They went on to win all three Tests and completed a 3-0 whitewash.
