[News] Pulling the plug on Misbah and Waqar experiment was a right decision at the wrong time

[Cinderella 乡]

Pakistan cricket was rocked yesterday when it saw its head coach Misbahul Haq and bowling coach Waqar Younis relinquish their positions, with the T20 World Cup a little over a month away.

 

The feeble fable told for the cameras was that Misbah walked away as he wasn’t in the 'right frame of mind' and did not want to be a part of widespread bio-secure bubbles that force you to spend a considerable time away from home.

 

Even the most gullible of the fans were not going to buy the excuse on a regular day. The fact that the resignations came on the day the national squad and a rather peculiar one at that  was announced and a few days before Ramiz Raja is to take over as the new Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman made the reasons cited sound even more unbelievable.
