Lahore-tahir Chuhdary-Ahmed Shehzad Pulls Out of Champions One-Day Cup After PSL Stint, Renowned Pakistan cricketer Ahmed Shehzad has announced his decision to boycott the upcoming Champions One-Day Cup, citing the Pakistan Cricket Board’s (PCB) favoritism, false promises, and injustice towards domestic players. This move comes after Shehzad withdrew from the Pakistan Super League (PSL) earlier this year.
In a scathing statement on X (formerly Twitter), Shehzad expressed his disappointment and frustration with the PCB’s policies. He highlighted the board’s wasteful expenditure of Rs5 million on mentors who have failed to deliver results, while neglecting the needs of domestic players.
Shehzad criticized the PCB for rewarding underperforming players who have contributed to the decline of Pakistan cricket. He emphasized the struggles faced by Pakistan, including inflation, poverty, and electricity shortages, and questioned the board’s priorities.
