'Independent' cricket

Sports

Is this the benefit of an 'independent' cricket team?

The recent Test loss of Pakistan to Bangladesh has left former cricketers in disbelief, prompting even quarantined Imran Khan to voice his concerns. On X (formerly Twitter), Khan expressed frustration with the state of Pakistani cricket, suggesting that the game has been undermined by political interference. He lamented that "the people of the country watch the game of cricket with deep attention in front of the TV," but lamented that this beloved sport has been compromised by powerful circles who have appointed incompetent officials to maintain control.
