“A complete mockery…”: Kamran Akmal tears apart the Pakistan team after loss to Bangladesh

Pakistan’s loss to Bangladesh in the first Test in Rawalpindi on Sunday has led to some strong reactions from former players. Bangladesh beat Pakistan by 10 wickets to register their first-ever win over their opponents in the longest format of the game.

Former Pakistan wicketkeeper-batter Kamran Akmal lashed out at the players and the management for not rectifying their past mistakes. In a brutal rant, Akmal accused the players and officials for Pakistan’s global humiliation in world cricket over the last 5 years.

“Had Rizwan not scored a 50 and ran the scoreboard, you’ve would’ve lost by an innings. You haven’t learned anything in the last 5 years. You lost to Zimbabwe. Last year, you were eliminated from Asia Cup. You were humiliated at the T20 World Cup. Made a complete mockery of Pakistan cricket,” Akmal said on his YouTube channel.

Akmal congratulated the Bangladesh team for stealing a win by showing great temperament. On the other hand, he questioned the attitude of the Pakistan players, who were seen having a laugh in the dressing room despite losing the grip on the match.

“It was a difficult time for Bangladesh but their batters scored runs. They had to save the Test, and they not only did that but also won the game. They basically exposed Pakistan cricket. And our players were batting like club cricketers. Sorry, not even club cricketers play like this. The approach was poor. Players are having a laugh in the dressing room, there is no seriousness because they know nobody will ask anything. It seems that you are playing for fun,” Akmal added.
