Misbah-ul-Haq says ‘Continuous changes in PCB affect players’ performance’

• Misbah has held the positions of head coach and chief selector.
• Misbah believes that Pakistan has a good chance to perform well.
• Misbah urges India to not mix politics with cricket.

Misbah-ul-Haq, the former captain of the Pakistan cricket team, has expressed his disapproval of the frequent changes taking place within the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).

He believes that the instability within the board negatively impacts the performance of the players. During Ehsan Mani’s tenure as chairman, Misbah held the positions of head coach and chief selector.

In the past six to eight months, there have been multiple changes in the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), particularly in the leadership position.

In December of the previous year, Ramiz Raja was removed from the chairmanship, and Najam Sethi was appointed as the chairman of the Management Committee in order to implement the 2014 constitution. However, Sethi recently decided to withdraw himself from the chairman’s elections.

As a result, Zaka Ashraf has taken over as the new head of the Management Committee. Ashraf previously served as the PCB chairman during the last government of the Pakistan Peoples Party. He will be responsible for overseeing the board’s operations for a period of four months.

According to Misbah, Pakistan has a favorable opportunity to achieve a strong performance in the upcoming World Cup scheduled to be held in India.

Misbah, who was a member of the Pakistani team that participated in the previous ICC World Cup held in India in 2011, offered guidance to India, urging them not to mix politics with the sport of cricket.
