Miandad criticizes PCB
'' player who performs for country is one that matters. In England and Australia, re is a series-to-series evaluation of your performances so if you fail in one series n y will forget that you had scored 500 runs in past. Only in Pakistan will you see a player playing 10 innings after scoring a century. It does t matter even if he fails and that is reason for so many problems in team. Everyone gets four innings just like that after one performance," said Javed Miandad on his Youtube channel.

"Tell me one thing, which player do we have in our team that can replace any players from Australia, England, New Zealand, South Africa or even India for that matter and be in ir side be it an opening batsman or batsmen batting at any positions? We have bowlers but re is t a single batsman", said an angry Miandad.
"Look at ir players. y score centuries in every alternate match and y still do t get to play while in our case, same players are given chances for eight years and this is reason why we are going down. selectors should seek justification from players by saying that t tomorrow but we need you to perform well today since you have been paid to do job. If you are t doing your job n why are you getting paid in first place?", 1992 World Cup winner added.
