Former Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq criticizes the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) after stepping down, arguing that problems in Pakistan cricket cannot be solved through “cosmetic” or short-term fixes. Misbah says the PCB’s approach has been inconsistent, particularly in how local and foreign coaches are treated.
Misbah also warns against what he describes as knee-jerk decisions made under pressure. He calls for a more thorough evaluation of team performance and development pathways rather than rapid personnel or policy changes. In his comments, he highlights India’s more methodical development approach as an example for building sustained improvement over time.
Both outlets report Misbah’s main message: that structural and performance-focused assessments are needed, and that abrupt changes alone will not address underlying problems. The reporting centers on his critique of PCB policy consistency and his emphasis on long-term development, rather than specific match results or immediate cricketing incidents.
