Explaining the reasons behind Pakistan’s 3-wicket loss despite putting 331 on board, Shoaib Akhtar said Pakistan cricket is being run by ‘average people’ and it is wrong to expect extraordinary things from average people. It brings average people, the management is average so obviously, they are going to build an average team. “Why this England team is doing so much better than us? But we are playing 70s cricket because our mindset is like that, we don’t want to improve,” Akhtar said. Making no attempts to hide his disappointments, Akhtar said Pakistan cricket is in a ‘hopeless situation’ as the fans are not getting value for their money.
