“Pakistan has become a joke of cricket”- Former cricketer scolded players after losing to Bangladesh
After Pakistan’s bad defeat, Kamran criticized the team on his YouTube channel. He said that no one has learned anything from what has happened in Pakistani cricket in the last five years. He said, “It was because Rizwan scored 50 and moved the scoreboard, otherwise we would have lost by an innings. This is such a bad defeat that it will not be forgotten. If you think bad about someone, bad things will happen to you too. You have not learned anything in the last 5 years. You lost to Zimbabwe. You were out of the Asia Cup last year. Now you have been humiliated so much in the World Cup. Pakistan cricket has become a joke in the world.” Kamran has praised the Bangladesh cricket team for their excellent performance. He said that Bangladesh had to save the match and they not only did it but also won the match. He said, “This is a difficult time for Bangladesh, but their batsmen scored runs. They had to save the Test match, they not only saved it but also won the match. They opened up the wrist of Pakistani cricket. Our batsmen were batting like club cricketers. The approach of the Pakistani players was also very bad. The players were laughing in the dressing room. There was no seriousness because they knew that no one would ask anything.
