Former Pakistan head coach Mudassar Nazar criticized Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) officials on Monday, accusing them of being consistently confused and failing to learn from their mistakes.

His comments came in response to Pakistan's heavy 10-wicket defeat against Bangladesh in the first Test.

Nazar, who also served as Director of the National Academy, expressed disbelief at the PCB's decision-making, stating, "The PCB is full of confused people and they are making mistakes after mistakes, leading to increasing problems in Pakistan cricket."

He particularly criticized the decision to play with four fast bowlers in Rawalpindi during August, noting, "Everyone who has played cricket in Pakistan knows that no matter what anyone says, in August the pitches in Rawalpindi tend to become good batting tracks after the first one or two hours of help for the seamers."

He was surprised by PCB’s decision to appoint Waqar Younis as a mentor of a team in Champions Cup.

"It is the result of confusion that is all. One day they appoint Waqar Younis as advisor on cricket and now he is mentor of a domestic team in Champions Cup," he questioned.
