^^^ There are no saints here. Rameez has done wonders for the PCB, and let's focus on that rather than the verbal duels. But I agree that he should not react to the provocations and need to act in a calm manner. It is not going to be beneficial for anyone, if the PCB officials and the ex-players wash their dirty laundry out in the open. I don't know whether it was right for him to send the legal notices to his critics. And it maybe a good idea to withdraw them and sort out the issues in private, rather than publicizing this issue anymore.
No one denying his recent contribution to PCB but it's also true that at the same time, under his watch shit talking went to another level.

Even PCB's official twitter account acts like it's handled by some teenager (trolling teams on getting knocked out from WC).

Ha! 6 teams, well let's see.  Roll Eyes



@JSRAW here I am not agreed with you because official account is surely doing not trolling or anything wrong because they all know how to do things in positively even few things are not good but surely this all is part of the game.

This is nothing new for Pakistan they are in last four or last two with their any kind of performance in most events, and they are not luckiest for the first time they have many lucky days in their past as well but still here we have problem with the Pakistan sports and all cricketing system which is never been in good shape specially now as we have too many ways to give our opinion still positive things not happening most of the former players are uneducated, and they have not good skills and techniques which help new generation players.

So, the best thing is just coming on any news channel which is currently very cheap way and talk about all shit even many players which capable of having good mindset and can bring good changes are not interested to help just talk and having good views on YouTube channel and trying to influence some political person for having good job this is current culture which is not going to change in next few years as they are not stable in finances and as well in political base.
I have seen a lot of people, and also a lot of YouTube channels saying anything just to get views, even though a lot of times it does not make sense. Why would you cuss your own country’s team even when they are reaching the finals?

People have to realize that cussing them is not going to make them play better. If they really want some upgrades, they can always go to the coaches and say what they are doing wrong. I think people are always doing something which is not helpful, trying to practice their freedom of speech.

My question is what Rameez had to do with the poor performance during the initial two matches? When the Pakistani team performed well during the New Zealand tri-series, the credit went to the players and not to the management. When that is the case, the poor performance during the initial stages of the world cup should also be attributed to the players. Managing the PCB is not an easy task, but Rameez has done a wonderful job so far. So I am in favor of letting him continue with the job, without much harassment.
Like i mentioned above, whenever Pakistan are performing poorly they would attack the coaches and the management. There was a time when Waqar Younis was their coach and when they fail terribly everyone would attack him including Ramiz Raja as part of the commentary team. There are some crazy things said by Ramiz Raja as well in the past and now he is under attack because he is the PCB chairman and he is still making statements in Twitter.
Teams with billion dollar leagues are falling behind us this is the statement by Ramiz Raja when India lost to England in the semi finals and when someone voices their opinion he is sending legal notices to them and that rings a bell as a hypocrite Tongue  Cheesy .
This "Billion dollar" Jab is just one example. There are quite a few instances where he becomes loose cannon against opposition teams " Beat em and we'll get a blank check" "Kohli scored a ton against 3rd rate team -Afganistan-)". Imagine ECB, CA, BCCI's president start talking like this.
I like the show you were referring to in your previous comment. The only thing I hate is when they bring religion into everything. Some might still remember Waqar Younis's bigoted comment last year, he came out as a true Islamist and later he had to apologize in public but it was just a damage control tactic IMO.
I really hate it when they bring in something and make it about religion. There is no need to do that at all. Now I know that there are a lot of controversies going on with the ICC and the way they handle things. A lot of people do say that India is always being favored by the ICC. But the thing is people are not going to respect your team. If you do not respect it yourself. And respect will always come when you start playing well.

As you said, Virat Kohli was out of form for quite a while. But I don’t think that former cricketers or even the media of India said anything bad about Virat Kohli. They supported their flair when he needed them the most.

Rameez Raja has been a cricket figure since forever first he was playing than commentary and now leading PCB so he knows things that can effect reputations of cricket boards.  First of all everyone who's there to discuss cricket should just stick to cricket instead of personal attacks . And the one who's leading our cricket board should stay with calm nerves to tackle things like this .

This doesn't give him any right to talk rubbish all the time, he's not the president of some local club but representing a major country in the cricketing world.

Likes of Lalit Modi, Srinivanas minted a shitload amount of money for BCCI. Do we neglect their wrongdoings? No and rightly so.

Lalit and Srinivasan made money from an already established market. Rameez's job was more difficult. And Lalit and Srinivasan are hated by the fans because of their nepotism, bias and corrupt practices. None of this is true for Rameez.
He's also a product of nepotism and was born with a silver spoon. Got a preference from start be it school, college, club and domestic cricket due to his father and brother's connection. He himself mentioned this many times on the record, proudly.

Rameez's duty is to take care of the administration and the finances. If the batsmen fail to score runs, I don't know what he can do about it. Maybe he can suggest a few changes in the batting order, and that is it. Still I am against a large scale reorganization, because the batsmen showed a lot of promise in Australia. There were indications that they are no longer heavily dependent on Babar Azam. And also, youngsters such as Mohammad Haris were scoring crucial runs.
That's the main point. He's the administrator so he should act responsibly and not indulge in a street fight by sending a legal notice to former cricketers or experts.

Yes it's true that after came of Rameez Raja Pakistan is constantly recovering their position. However, to make the team completely successful, many behaviors must be changed.  In particular, he should now plan on team management, otherwise Pakistan's batting side will start to disappear again if this continues as Pakistan's batting side has started to weaken.

Whatsoever - but the Pakistani team became a better team during his tenure.
The cricket board chairperson has always been a controversial figure - no problem about it. But Ramiz Raja has been the best at least better than Najam Shetti

Completely agreed with this. Many would be unaware of this, but Rameez was the one who rescued PSL from being defunct. Two years ago, the PSL franchise owners threatened to pull out, since they were unhappy with the revenue distribution model. Rameez sat down with them, and listened to their concerns. When the owners started making unfair demands, Rameez told them to either accept the conditions or out their franchises back into auction. He was also behind the new media rights deal, which is worth $24 million for PSL.

Ramiz Raja has always been a controversial figure. He always speaks aggressively. The way he refers to India is not appropriate at all. India lost that semi-final match but Pakistan could not win the final either. I think there are some people who act like fools even though they are highly educated and one of them is Ramiz Raja. He should refrain from speaking offensively to other. His ill-mannered depriving him of the respect he deserves.

It remains to be seen how Pakistan cricket has improved during his tenure. Whatever the cricket board chairman says irrelevantly. But it is true that even though Pakistan cricket has improved, Ramij Raja is viewed negatively by many in the cricketing world. Because there is some differences in his speech. After all we want every country's cricket to thrive and conduct cricket with honesty and integrity. As a result at least cricket will improve.

I don't understand why people forget their decency and grace when they get some position ,Ramiz Raja is loosing alot of respect which he had when he was a commentator. These direct disgraceful attacks aren't good for cricketing relationships and you goodwill.

It's not former players or Rambo's problem but the Pakistani cricket system.
It gets very ugly there, almost everyone (former player, commentators, sports anchor, PCB's Chief) shitposts and makes cringe statements when the thing gets tough or see any kind of success.
I can understand when former players etc make any ridiculous comments about the team or anyone for that matter but as a cricket board chief, you should have some grace as you're holding a top seat. You don't hear or see such kind of behavior from other cricket board presidents.
Can't agree with you here. Akmal and some of the other ex-players reportedly made personal attacks against Rameez. The team reached finals in the world cup, and rather than celebrating it they are showering verbal abuse on the administrators. If it was someone like Wasim Akram or Shoiab Akhtar, then I would have still listened. But Kamran Akmal? What he has so far achieved in his career so far? Test batting average of 30.79 and 26.09 in ODI. Rameez maybe a bit strict here, but people like Kamran understand this language only.
You should listen to what Rambo has to say about the previous chiefs when he was not in the system. He as an expert ripped everyone apart (including opposition teams, calling em names etc), when the PCB hosted teams like Zim, WI,SL, BAN. Likes of Najam Sethi, Ehsan Mani didn't send him any legal notice for that.
I know that Pakistan did reach the finals. But no one can deny that they got a bit lucky. Because first of all, they shouldn’t have lost against Zimbabwe. Secondly, they got a chance when the Netherlands beat South Africa. Because that really shouldn’t have happened. So everything was hanging on a chance for Pakistan. And Pakistan themselves had to rely on two or three of the players to do all the work. Whenever Babar Azam, Rizwan, or Shaheen Shah Afridi failed to perform, Pakistan was in a lot of trouble.
Pakistan has come out of all the hurdles before playing the final match maybe only because of luck. Loss to Zimbabwe and South Africa's loss to Ireland once again gave Pakistan a dream. Maybe they wouldn't have got this benefit if the luck wasn't good. But in the end luck did not work in their favor on the field of play. Rizwan out from the inside edge, why Babar Azam play the ball that way. Where top order batsman are the hope of Pakistan. Here is a lesson taught by whatever fate does. In the field you have to win by playing the best not only for luck.
Pakistan are quite lucky in this world it's right because the luck safe Pakistan during Netherlands vs southAfrica match but you can't ignore this truth that Pakistan won the consecutive 4 crutial matches to reach to the final , they beat strong team like SouthAfrica who beat India alredy and Pakistan also beat Netherlands who beat south Africa and the another strong team like Bangladesh who has equal point with Pakistan, Pak beat all of them,
So the main point is that without the strong performance only luck can't put Pakistan into final.
I am also kinda agree with you because Pakistan also gaves a good performance in the series they are not only depending on luck. But unfortunately Pakistan has the weakness of Batmens because I saw they are constantly depending on babar azam and rizwan for batting and when they can't perform well Pakistan lost that match. I they should immediately change the batting lineup Otherwise this will happen again and again with them.
Yeh absolutely right they must change the line of middle order in order to remove dependency from open pair Baber and Rizwan, in recent PAkistan Junior League we got some young talent like tayyab and basit Ali etc , if we give them chance in PSL for test and after that put them in our National team squad and some new talents through PSL franchises talent hunt trail then i think they can solve middle order problem. Because our youth talent has the ability to solve Pakistan middle order problem
Every player in team specially batsman should perform his best no matter the openers play or not , its there duty for its team and country. This is becoming a trend now if Muhammad Rizwan and Babar Azam will not perform rest of the team will shake down. Rizwan is fine but Babar is under soo much pressure don't know why he's not in form for playing you can see this clearly in his game. But middle order is trying to lift up team and they somehow succeed in that.
So instead of changing the players work on the recent players as they all are fresh and they can perform very well during difficult matches.

Secondly, they got a chance when the Netherlands beat South Africa. Because that really shouldn’t have happened. So everything was hanging on a chance for Pakistan. And Pakistan themselves had to rely on two or three of the players to do all the work. Whenever Babar Azam, Rizwan, or Shaheen Shah Afridi failed to perform, Pakistan was in a lot of trouble.
Pakistan has come out of all the hurdles before playing the final match maybe only because of luck. Loss to Zimbabwe and South Africa's loss to Ireland once again gave Pakistan a dream. Maybe they wouldn't have got this benefit if the luck wasn't good. But in the end luck did not work in their favor on the field of play. Rizwan out from the inside edge, why Babar Azam play the ball that way. Where top order batsman are the hope of Pakistan. Here is a lesson taught by whatever fate does. In the field you have to win by playing the best not only for luck.
Pakistan are quite lucky in this world it's right because the luck safe Pakistan during Netherlands vs southAfrica match but you can't ignore this truth that Pakistan won the consecutive 4 crutial matches to reach to the final , they beat strong team like SouthAfrica who beat India alredy and Pakistan also beat Netherlands who beat south Africa and the another strong team like Bangladesh who has equal point with Pakistan, Pak beat all of them,
So the main point is that without the strong performance only luck can't put Pakistan into final.
I am also kinda agree with you because Pakistan also gaves a good performance in the series they are not only depending on luck. But unfortunately Pakistan has the weakness of Batmens because I saw they are constantly depending on babar azam and rizwan for batting and when they can't perform well Pakistan lost that match. I they should immediately change the batting lineup Otherwise this will happen again and again with them.
Yeh absolutely right they must change the line of middle order in order to remove dependency from open pair Baber and Rizwan, in recent PAkistan Junior League we got some young talent like tayyab and basit Ali etc , if we give them chance in PSL for test and after that put them in our National team squad and some new talents through PSL franchises talent hunt trail then i think they can solve middle order problem. Because our youth talent has the ability to solve Pakistan middle order problem

It's not former players or Rambo's problem but the Pakistani cricket system.

It gets very ugly there, almost everyone (former player, commentators, sports anchor, PCB's Chief) shitposts and makes cringe statements when the thing gets tough or see any kind of success.

I can understand when former players etc make any ridiculous comments about the team or anyone for that matter but as a cricket board chief, you should have some grace as you're holding a top seat. You don't hear or see such kind of behavior from other cricket board presidents.

Can't agree with you here. Akmal and some of the other ex-players reportedly made personal attacks against Rameez. The team reached finals in the world cup, and rather than celebrating it they are showering verbal abuse on the administrators. If it was someone like Wasim Akram or Shoiab Akhtar, then I would have still listened. But Kamran Akmal? What he has so far achieved in his career so far? Test batting average of 30.79 and 26.09 in ODI. Rameez maybe a bit strict here, but people like Kamran understand this language only.
Here I agreed with you personal attacks specially from player like Kamran Akmal is surely not good because we all know how things he has done in his career which are surely not good and positive other thing right now Pakistan is in critical position due to many factors so just because of this many news channels allow players to join them and give their views about this T20i World Cup, so we have different views which are mostly not constructive and positive because they have good experience but not good knowledge of the game so every one want to have some intention from public even right now Ramiz Raja is doing good things but still many are not happy because they are doing points scoring and Ramiz's case against Kamran Akmal is right thing for me in current situation.
That's true I don't get this why Is there soo much criticism and discussion on every news channel for world cup like those who were a failure during there sport playing days are sitting there and attacking Pakistan team and administration . Why can't they just support and appreciate their team for how far they have reached and what they have achieved in T20WC.
