Champions Trophy: Pakistan Ridiculed After Another Washout | First Sports With Rupha Ramani | N18G
Pakistan's disappointing ICC Champions Trophy campaign ended without winning a match. But it’s not just the team that’s under fire – the organisation of the event itself has been heavily criticised. From multiple washouts due to poor drainage systems to leaking roofs and chaotic match scheduling, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has been facing intense heat. The Afghanistan V Australia game, which ended in controversy, exposed the tournament’s lack of preparedness, while the upcoming semifinal in Lahore raises further concerns. As fans criticise the poor management, Rupha Ramani takes a closer look at the tournament’s infrastructure issues and the mounting pressure on Pakistan as a host nation. Will the final stages of the tournament take place without a hitch, or will the weather play its part in deciding the next champion?
Also on the show:
- England's ICC Champions Trophy exit has met with immense criticism. Jos Buttler has resigned from the captaincy following the group stage exit. After losing all their matches, England has faced heat for their "arrogance". Is "Bazball" hurting England in international cricket?
- Uzbek grandmaster Nodirbek Yakubboev resorted to Namaste during a round 3 game at the Prague Chess Festival. Nodirbek who faced criticism for refusing to shake hands with Indian grandmaster Vaishali Rameshbabu, greeted India's Divya Deshmukh with a namaste. Watch how a simple gesture turned into something grand for Nodirbek.
