Former Pakistan cricket star Shahid Afridi called on Mohsin Naqvi to resign from either his role as Pakistan Cricket Board chairman or his position as interior minister. Afridi said the dual responsibilities prevent Naqvi from giving adequate attention to cricket administration. Pakistan suffered three defeats against India during the recent Asia Cup tournament, and Naqvi walked away with the trophy before it could be presented to the Indian team.
Naqvi also serves as president of the Asian Cricket Council after replacing India's Jay Shah. Afridi questioned the quality of Naqvi's advisers and said the chairman lacks sufficient cricket knowledge. Pakistan cricket requires focused leadership and advisers with expertise in the sport, according to Afridi. Army officials reportedly received requests to counsel Naqvi about leaving one of his posts.
