Following a disappointing T20 World Cup performance, Pakistan cricket players have reportedly been fined, prompting debate in the country. Former captain Shahid Afridi suggested the fines should have been higher, while pacer Mohammad Amir argued that selectors and officials responsible for team strategy should also be held accountable.
Players were reportedly fined PKR 5 million each after exiting in the Super Eight stage. Amir emphasized that punishing players alone is not fair and suggested strengthening domestic cricket to produce consistent talent. His comments add a new dimension to the ongoing debate on accountability in Pakistan cricket.
