@Tony116 I believe that PCB is at fault here for not grooming player’s well and not helping them cultivate the winning mentality which effects them when they play in important matches. Furthermore if PCB can sort out their issue's then Pakistan can dominate all format’s of cricket for a very long time, but in my personal opinion it’ll take few year’s before they can win matches/tournaments on the same level like Australia, England and team India do.
It is undoubtedly going to take time because Pakistan is not in a stable position from a political standpoint. And of course, the political situation of a country is far more complicated and consequential than cricket. Obviously, they should look to fix those problems first. A country gets recognized through cricket. But a country cannot even function properly without a stable political situation. And even with all those problems, I think Pakistan is doing quite well. But there is no doubt that they will have to do better if they want to compete at the top level.
In subcontinent most of the boards are not having any well settled system which helps players, and they can do good for the long term most of the time we have issues of nepotism and personal like and dislikes which is surely killing merit and talent of the many youths even in many areas we have serious domestic issues which never allow having positive development for the progress of the game.
In recent years, we have few good changes in Pakistan domestic system but still it's never been easy to adopt them and have positive results from this all because political influence and many other aspects are creating mess up which never allowing to have strong system with merit and helpful for quality players to give their best just because of this when they are playing in SENA countries they never have confident mostly they play under pressure and lost games narrowly.
For some reason, I feel like Pakistan has lost their venom. Pakistan was a far better team in the past. But now they have to depend on a few players to perform to get a win. That is not an ideal situation for them at all. And I also do not think that Pakistan has been able to produce the type of player that they used to.
