big_gamer007 said: Pakistan’s cricket is mediocre — and it will remain that way until the country addresses its deeper, systemic issues. Why expect excellence on the field when the foundational problems of governance, infrastructure, and national development remain unaddressed? Only when the country fixes its institutions and governance can cricket begin to improve. The governance, corruption and rotten core was there in the past as well- but Pakistan ended up with generational talents. It's cricket itself: from a semi-pro sport with exploited grey areas to now professional, transparent, organised rules, regs etc.
