‘Aap apni ‘C’ teams hi lekar aayiyega’ – Danish Kaneria lambasts Pakistan team after England whitewash

Pakistan lost to England 0-3 in the three-match Test series and have been hitting the headlines post that, as fans are yet to come out of the loss, given that it is the first time that the Pakistani men have been whitewashed in their 75 years history. Angered by the same, the former Pakistani cricketer Danish Kaneria slammed the board and the team for embarrassing themselves time and time again. 

With Pakistan about to clash against New Zealand for a two-match Test series set to get underway on December 26, it remains to be seen if the board would come up with aggressive changes, although one could argue that it is highly unlikely as the next series against the Kiwis is just a few days away. 

Saying that his team have lost the quality to win games, Kaneria requested the visiting nations to send their ‘C’ team so that the current Pakistani men can clinch the win. Notably, much to the surprise of the Pakistani fans, the Babar Azam-led team are yet to win a Test in their own backyard this year. 

We don’t have any quality players: Danish Kaneria

Kaneria claimed that the team might have to revamp their squad and added they have no one to point fingers at them. However, the skipper and the team have been under the radar for their continued poor run in the longest format of the game, while they were the finalist of the recently concluded 20-20 World Cup 2022. 

“Jo bhi teams ab next time Pakistan ka daura karengi, please apni ‘A’ teams mat lekar aayiega, kyun ki hume iss tarah ki zillat nahi dekhni padegi. Aap apni ‘C’ teams hi lekar aayiyega, kyun ki usse hi badi mushkil se khel ke shayad jeet sakte hain. Kyun ki ability hi khatam ho gayi hai. Ab humare pass vo quality players nahi rhe, vo superstars nahi rhe. (It is my request to other countries not to send their ‘A’ team to Pakistan. Otherwise, we will have to face such embarrassment again and again. Please send us your ‘C’ team so that we somehow manage to win. We no longer have the ability to win. We don’t have any quality players or superstars in the team),” Kaneria was quoted as saying on his YouTube channel. 

“Humari team ki approach hai ki apna karo kyun ki team mein jagah banani hai. Koi hai poochne wala inko? Management mein itne bade log baithe hain jo itni badi badi baatein karte hain. Hum doosre logon ke liye toh bhut bolte hain ki inki cricket aisi hai, humari game kaisi hai? (The Pakistani players are only concerned about their own performances and not the team. There is nobody to question them. We talk a lot about other teams, but why not take a look at our cricket instead?)” he added.

“Humari cricket ka toh bedagarak karke rakh diya. Jiss tarah se hum cricket khel rahe hain, mujhe lagta hai poora revamp karne ki zarurat hai. Isse accha U-19 ke bacchon ko khilao taaki haarenge bhi toh afsos nhi hoga. (Pakistan cricket is sinking. There has to be a complete revamp. We should send our U-19 team instead. Even if they lose, it won’t be disappointing.),” he added.
