After suffering a significant loss to India by 61 runs in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, internal discussions within Pakistan cricket have intensified. Former captain Mohammad Yousuf expressed his disappointment on social media, questioning the operational methods of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) without directly naming its chief, Mohsin Naqvi. He implied that the team’s issues are more related to systemic problems rather than just on-field performance, indicating that decisions are made based on personal biases and external influences rather than cricketing logic.

Yousuf's comments reignited a long-standing debate regarding the PCB's management, which has faced allegations of political interference, unstable selection policies, and administrative inconsistencies over the years. The recent leadership under Mohsin Naqvi has come under continuous scrutiny, with critics pointing to flaws in decision-making processes and lack of accountability within the organization. Yousuf highlighted that the struggles of Pakistan cricket are deeply rooted in the systemic issues that hinder the team’s progress and success.

This incident draws attention to the frustrations many fans and former players feel regarding the state of Pakistani cricket, especially in light of recent performances. As conversations about reform and improvement in the PCB continue, Yousuf’s statement is likely to fuel further discussion about how cricket governance in Pakistan can be improved, ensuring that decisions are made with the sport's integrity in mind instead of external pressures.
