Shahid Afridi shouldn’t work in such environment: Ramiz Raja launches fresh attack on Pakistan cricket board

Written by Vishwas Gupta

Ramiz Raja has launched a fresh attack on the Pakistan Cricket Board, saying that interim Chief Selector Shahid Afridi shouldn’t be working in such an environment.

Raja was sacked as the PCB chairman in the wake of Pakistan’s 3-0 home Test series loss to England last year and was replaced by Najam Sethi. One of Sethi’s first major calls was to appoint Afridi as the interim chief selector. 

“In my opinion, he shouldn’t work in such environment. I can only suggest this,” Ramiz Raja told Capital TV.

When asked to elaborate on his comment, Raja took a dig at the PCB said that he would have done a bit of research on the organization before taking up a job.

“If I have to join any institution, I’ll do a bit of research. Who is the boss, who are his subordinates, will I be comfortable or not, will I get any reward, why do I want to work, what is the purpose?” said Raja.
