'I don't know how to defend': Helpless Ramiz Raja reacts to the turmoil in current Pakistan cricket team
With Pakistan once again struggling against England and Babar Azam helpless to defend his team, former skipper Ramiz Raja looks at the turmoil surrounding PCB.
Ramiz Raja expressed his inability to justify Pakistan's recent cricket turmoil, stating that the situation was unprecedented and beyond justification. The controversy arose after seven players and two coaches were sent home mid-tour, with head coach Sarfaraz Ahmed and bowling coach Umar Gul removed and replaced by Mike Hesson. The news of the changes reached captain Babar Azam through media reports, rather than directly from the board, leaving him demoralized.
Raja sympathized with Azam, acknowledging the captain's struggle to lead a team reshaped without his input. His admission of not knowing how to defend the current situation highlights the severity of the governance failures that have come to light.
