Ramiz Raja is known for speaking his mind on all cricketing matters, whether its related to the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), the players, their performances and whatnot.
Talking about corruption in cricket, the former captain has said that bringing back tainted cricketers such as Mohammad Amir has only damaged Pakistan cricket. He was of the view that corrupt cricketers, who have served their bans, should not be given an entry back into cricket and that they should open grocery stores instead.
The cricketer-turned-commentator slammed the PCB for their indecisive policy on corruption, questioning the selectors why they haven’t found a replacement for Mohammad Amir. Talking about Sharjeel’s return, he said:
There are once again talks of redrafting Sharjeel Khan into the team which is not right and can damage Pakistan cricket.
