Pakistan cricket is going through a transitional phase and at the heart of calling the changes has been the PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi.

Jason Gillespie Launches Fresh Attack On Mohsin Naqvi
In a fresh attack on The PCB Chairman, Gillespie highlighted the lack of interest from Naqvi to join a Connection Camp, an initiative headed by Gary Kirsten during his days with the national team.
“Gary came up with this great idea of a connection camp. Everyone in Pakistan cricket basically shared their experiences in that meeting. I flew in from Australia, Gary flew in from South Africa, the Chairman Mohsin Naqvi dialed in Zoom,” he said.
“He is based in Lahore, but he did not come, while Gary came in from Africa. We both felt that the Chairman could not even drive 20 minutes to come here - that was a bit unusual,” he added.
The camp was organised on September 23, 2024 and the aim was to improve the communication among the players. The camp was attended by players like Babar Azam, Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Rizwan, Saim Ayub, Salman Ali Agha, Saud Shakeel, Shadab Khan, and Shan Masood.
