Javed Miandad's critical analysis on recent Imran Khan's cricket interview in India

Imran was there and he saw Afridi trying to play safe instead of going for an offensive when India was down three wickets .. so he observed his lack of offense there and said it,

Miandad is right, imran khan should not get involved in cricket too much.

This anchor looks biased towards Imran. This is the second time during world Cup, each time he plays Imran,s Clip & try to divert the discussion on negative aspects.

Imran khan is not following cricket from past few years., so his analysis would not be that accurate as one can expect.. either he should get involved in cricket like ramiz raja n Wasim akram else he must avoid giving his opinion. Already some ppl claim he suggested the team to take 4 fast bowlers against India , not at all a good decision.

as far as I know, immi has always backed afridi, it is the first time he said something negative about him, that in cricket role of Captain is key to success in other words he was not happy with afridis captaincy

Javed Miandad's argument leaves me boggled. According to him, Imran has been out of cricket for a long time, and is now in politics, so he should not talk about cricket, and stick to politics.
So this means that all of Imran's 20+year experience in cricket is awash now, that he is no longer in the game? What about these media anchors, analysts, gurus, who keep talking about cricket when they havent even spent a single day in cricket? or in some cases, ex-cricketers who were flops on the field, or at best, average players, with a few matches under their belt, and now all of a sudden, are experts in the topic?

Imran's words hold more weight than any cricketer in Pakistan out there, hands down. Clowns like Sheheryar, Sethi, etc are ruling the roost, making decisions based on money and money alone. Whereas Imran's statements are based on the merit of the game and players. Yes, Imran doenst watch every game, or doesnt follow every cricketer, but I would trust his eye and instincts based on his knowledge more than that of the goofs in charge of Pak cricket today.

عمران خان نے کرکٹ کے میدان کو کئی سال پہلے پیچھے چھوڑ دیا تھا- اس وقت جب آپ وزیراعظم بننے کی جدوجہد کر رہے ہوں، پھر دوبارہ کرکٹ میں دخل دینا کوئی اچھی حکمت عملی نہیں

Haha, it seems that three stooges r sitting n bashing anyone. IK is one of biggest brain in cricket history.normally his predictions in cricket become true. He is in politics now but it doesnt mean he forget cricket.miandad is still in own limited world because of his jealousy n choti soch.

 

[saadkiakaray]

IK never said that to anyone and he told ABP news that he didn't even see the pitch as its job of captain and not anybody else to see the pitch And decide abt who should play and who shouldn't...watch his post match interview
