Ramiz Raja, the chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), indirectly mocked the Indian Premier League (IPL) in response to the Men in Blue’s T20 World Cup 2022 semifinal elimination. He claimed that Pakistani players have fared significantly better than those who were paid millions.
There has always been a rivalry between the Pakistan Super League (PSL) and the Indian Premier League (IPL). The IPL has established itself as the world’s top T20 tournament thanks to the participation of numerous foreign celebrities and the sum of money at stake. PSL, though, isn’t far behind in terms of talent production.
Speaking to reporters after arriving in Australia, Raja said:
“Pakistan players are better than the billion-dollar league cricketers.” Teams with billion-dollar leagues are falling behind us. “We are doing something right.”
