‘PCB should learn from BCCI’: Kamran Akmal slams Pakistan cricket’s ‘ego’ for team’s poor performances 

New Delhi: Pakistan’s former wicketkeeper-batter Kamran Akmal has shared his thoughts on the recent troubles faced by Pakistan cricket team, claiming PCB’s ego is the main reason. The former wicketkeeper batter believes that PCB must look to find a way to emulate BCCI’s professionalism to become a top side again.

Pakistan’s men’s team have faced many failures since the start of the year, starting with a 4-1 loss in T20I series in New Zealand. The Men in Green managed to secure the five-game T20I series at home against New Zealand. Later, suffered a group-stage exit in T20 World Cup 2024, followed by a humiliating 2-0 Test series loss against Bangladesh at home.

Speaking on his YouTube channel, Akmal Suggested that BCCI’s systematic structure and decision making helps them to achieve greater heights.

“PCB should learn from BCCI, their professionalism, their team, selector, captain, and coaches. These are the things that make a team number one and dominate the world. If we were so good, then Pakistan cricket wouldn’t be here. It is because of your ego Pakistan cricket is suffering,” said Akmal.

On the other hand, India started their home season on a high note by defeating Bangladesh by 280 runs in the opening Test match in Chennai. India also ranks at the top in the World Test Championship (WTC) standings.
