Controversies and setbacks are not leaving the Pakistan cricket behind. Beyond on-field struggles, yet another scandal is tarnishing the nation’s image on the global stage, adding to their woes.

A former Pakistan captain is facing scrutiny over alleged links to an agent banned by the ECB. Along with that, report is saying he used to play key role in securing contracts.

Another Controversy Affects The Pakistan Cricket

Once known for unreal cricket brilliance, the Pakistan cricket has now grabbed the attention for a wrong reason. Even before, Pakistan’s image has been tarnished with corruption, the black patch has comeback in another way. The head of the International Cricket Association Mughiz Ahmed Sheikh who is registered a player agent with England and Wales Cricket Board has been suspended.

Following an investigation, Sheikh has been found guilty of four breaches of the ECB’s anti-corruption code. After that, the England and Wales Cricket Board has already suspended Sheikh’s registration as an agent.

A Former Pakistani Captain To Come Under Scrutiny

As per reports, the agent allegedly tried to influence a British coach with illicit incentives to ensure his favored players secured spots in the team. Adding a twist with that, a former Pakistan skipper who is currently holding a prestigious spot in Pakistan cricket has a close link to Sheikh. He is rumored to have played a key role in securing young players' contracts with the controversial company.

Amidst the controversy, some of the big names of the Pakistan cricket like Abdullah Shafique, Sarfaraz Ahmed, Usama Mir and some others have cut all the ties with the alleged association. The ECB banned the alleged agent along with the other members of the company. The Pakistan Cricket Board is yet to make their mark on this incident.
