Amid the heated debate surrounding the decline of Pakistan cricket, former Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh’s father, Yograj Singh, has made a bold offer—claiming he can transform the Pakistan team within a year. A seasoned coach who has trained numerous budding cricketers at his academy, Yograj expressed his readiness to take on the challenge and resurrect Pakistan’s cricketing fortunes.
The Pakistan cricket team’s ongoing struggles have become a cause for concern, with constant changes in management, selection committees, and player lineups failing to yield significant improvements. Despite multiple overhauls, the team’s performance remains underwhelming, drawing criticism from both former cricketers and fans alike.
Yograj Singh Slams Former Pakistan Cricketers
Never one to shy away from speaking his mind, Yograj Singh took a direct dig at Pakistan’s cricketing legends, including Wasim Akram and Shoaib Akhtar, who have been openly critical of the national team’s failures.
Singh called out these former players for ridiculing the current squad instead of actively contributing to its improvement.
“It’s disappointing to hear such unpleasant remarks from a legendary player like Wasim Akram. and people around him are laughing? They should be ashamed. Shoaib Akhtar, a great fast bowler, is comparing Pakistan’s players with Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli? Why are you just sitting in studios, making money by criticizing the team? Go back to your country, conduct camps, and show us if you can help Pakistan win a World Cup. If you can’t, then resign,” Yograj Singh told SportsNext.
A Challenge to Pakistan’s Cricketing Icons
Yograj’s statement challenges Pakistan’s cricketing stalwarts to step out of their commentary roles and take an active part in rebuilding the struggling team. He believes that mentorship and structured training—rather than criticism—are the key to addressing Pakistan cricket’s deep-rooted issues.
As Pakistan cricket faces a crucial turning point, the question remains: Will any of the country’s legendary cricketers accept the challenge and take proactive steps to rebuild the team? Or will the cycle of blame and disappointment continue?
