Ramiz Raja trolled for 'YouTube comeback' after being sacked as PCB Chairman
Najam Sethi replaced Ramiz Raja as PCB chairman.
After being sacked as the Chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), former cricketer Ramiz Raja announced his return to YouTube -- something that Twitterverse found it absolutely hilarious!
Raja was named as the PCB chief while Imran Khan was serving as the Prime Minister of Pakistan. However, under his leadership, the Men in Green failed to find any major success. Despite qualifying for the final, the team failed to deliver in the Asia Cup and the same happened in the T20 World Cup. The final nail in the coffin was pinned when Pakistan were humiliated by England in the recently concluded Test series.
During his tenure, Raja made quite a few changes and most importantly, played a significant role to bring back international cricket in Pakistan. The 60-year-old also started the Pakistan Junior league for U19 cricketers and that already paid dividends as a number of cricketers now play for different franchises in the Pakistan Super League (PSL).
He also took a dig at BCCI and called them out after Jay Shah revealed that the next year’s Asia Cup will not be hosted in Pakistan and will be shifted to a neutral venue. Despite contributing and defending the national team quite a number of times, he never was a fan favourite and thus, was heavily trolled after the former cricketer announced his return to YouTube.
