“Congratulations to the USA, They’ve done amazingly well. When you talk about globalization of the game, this is it. USA qualified for the Super Eight, they deserve to be there. They defeated Pakistan, in their group match. For Pakistan, what’s the plan? EK 601 (flight number) to Dubai, to their respective cities. From then, we will see what happens,” said Akram.
Earlier, Akram also blamed biased selection for Pakistan’s below-par performances in the T20 World Cup.
“Pakistani players think that if they don’t perform well, the coaches will be sacked, and nothing will happen to them,” Akram said during a broadcast after the defeat to India.
“It is time to keep the coaches and change the entire team.”
Former player Kamran Akmal said Shadab Khan was chosen to play because he is close to captain Babar Azam, and that meant leaving out leg-spinner Usama Mir, the top wicket-taker in this year’s Pakistan Super League.
“When you select players based on friendship, you’ll get these results,” Akmal told AFP. “Mir should have been in the squad… That was a big injustice.”
