‘PCB Made Absolute Fools Of Themselves’ - Imran Khan’s Sons Hit Out Over Lord’s Test Row
Pakistan Cricket Board: The sons of former Pakistan captain and prime minister Imran Khan have slammed Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Mohsin Naqvi, saying that the board has made ‘absolute fools of themselves’ over threats to abandon the recent Lord’s Test against England.
The row erupted during the second Test when Sky Sports broadcasted an interview conducted by former England captain Michael Atherton with Khan’s sons, Sulaiman and Kasim. The pair spoke about their imprisoned father’s deteriorating health and prison conditions in Pakistan, leading to reports emerging that the PCB threatened not to take the field in the post-lunch session on day one unless the interview’s airing was cancelled.
“They made absolute fools of themselves,” Kasim told The Telegraph on Sunday. Sulaiman, meanwhile, expressed shock at the PCB’s reaction to the interview. “I was expecting some sort of response. But I didn't think they would be so tactless as to threaten not to take to the field.
