The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has dropped explosive opener Fakhar Zaman from the squad for the upcoming white-ball tours of Australia and Zimbabwe. The decision has sparked outrage among fans, who feel that Fakhar has been unfairly treated by the board.
Controversy Surrounding Fakhar Zaman
Fakhar’s recent actions may have played a role in his exclusion. A few weeks ago, the senior batter criticized the PCB for dropping Babar Azam from Pakistan’s Test XI against England. His comments did not sit well with the board, prompting the PCB to issue him a show-cause notice, demanding an explanation for his remarks.
Adding to the controversy, Fakhar failed a fitness test and expressed dissatisfaction with the PCB’s new policies on restricting No Objection Certificates (NOCs) for overseas T20 leagues. His candid comments about the board’s stricter rules further strained his relationship with the PCB.
Fans Question PCB’s Decision
Support for Fakhar has poured in from Pakistan cricket fans, many of whom believe the opener has been treated unjustly. On social media platform X, several users highlighted his past white-ball performances and criticized the PCB for leaving him out.
Let’s take a look at some reactions:
