"Darkest Period In Our History": Mohammad Yousuf Tears Into PCB 'Politics', Targets Mohsin Naqvi

In a scathing critique, former Pakistan cricketer Mohammad Yousuf has condemned the ongoing 'politics' within the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) under the leadership of chairman Mohsin Naqvi. Yousuf, reflecting on the current state of cricket in Pakistan, described it as 'the darkest period in our history,' expressing deep concerns over how political ambitions are undermining the integrity and performance of the sport. His remarks come in the context of Naqvi's recent appointment, which Yousuf believes has led to a prioritization of personal agendas over the game's welfare. He urged for a return to merit-based selections and a focus on nurturing young talent, rather than allowing political affiliations to dictate cricketing decisions. This situation has sparked considerable debate among fans and analysts about the impact of political interference in sports, questioning the future of cricket in Pakistan amidst growing discontent from former players and stakeholders alike.
