Former PCB chief Ramiz Raja had an awfully aggressive reaction to it. Ramiz Raja didn’t mince words and said that BCCI cannot dictate their groups. Pakistan can pull out of the ODI World Cup if the Indian team will not visit Pakistan for the Cup. Raja had a council meeting with ICC to deal with the problem whereas the T20 World Cup was still on. It’s currently being said that Raja’s actions did not go down too well with current Pakistan Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif. Following Pakistan’s 3-0 loss to England, he took strict measures and appointed Sethi as the new PCB chief. Currently, Sethi has reacted to the whole situation and has aforesaid some large things.
Sethi conjointly reacted to Ramiz Raja’s comments and said:
“I’ve forever admired him, and I perceive his position, however, we are going to always welcome if he needs to do commentary assignments in the future.”
Najam Sethi has also expressed his views on obtaining a brand-new coach for Pakistan. He has hinted at Micky Arthur who is busy together with his assignment for Derbyshire.
Reacting to the PCB Vs BCCI clash he said, “We will confirm regardless of what the government would recommend to us. We will look for the government’s recommendation once the time arrives, the same as per my last tenure as chairman. As the Asia Cup is concerned, I will approach ACC (Asian Cricket Council) and see what things are. We’ll take a choice that’s in the best interest of the game. We’ve to consider the opposite board’s position. We must play cricket with everyone. We won’t take any steps which might cause any isolation for us.”
