Ramiz Raja finds Misbah unfit for the position of Head Coach

Former Pakistan captain-turned-cricket commentator Ramiz Raja has dismissed Pakistan Cricket Board’s (PCB) idea of introducing dual roles in Pakistan cricket and has also voiced against the likely appointment of Misbah-ul-Haq as chief selector and head coach.

“The idea of dual roles can work in the western block where the administration is professional with proper checks and balance, but experimenting with such concept in Pakistan cricket is not without its dangers as it is impractical and unsuitable because it has never happened before,” Ramiz said in a video on YouTube.

“So in my view Pakistan cricket should not conduct such experiment. The role of coach should be kept separate and selection committee should be announced separately,” Ramiz added.

Raja also emphasised the need for Pakistan team to move towards a fearless brand of cricket. The 57-year-old also believes Pakistan needs a side that can win in all conditions and only then they will be respected as a top team.

Raja added that Pakistan should learn from Virat Kohli and how his nature has molded the Indian cricket team.

Virat Kohli has taken Indian team in Test cricket to new heights with his aggressive and fearless approach. Pakistan needs to follow suit as there is aggression in Men in Green’s DNA and they need individuals in the think-tank who can make plans that are according to the demands of modern-day cricket.

The cricketer turned commentator also said:

Pakistan team under Misbah was only successful in one type of condition and played safe cricket. If the Men in Green want to change their fortunes in Test cricket and increase their fan following, they need a fresh approach and that can only happen when people with aggressive mindset are in charge.
