LAHORE: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) failed to receive positive response from former cricketers on Wednesday, who were invited by it to advise on improvement of Pakistan cricket.

No prominent cricketer was present in the meeting other than Haroon Rasheed. He had been removed as chief selector last year after Pakistan’s dismal performance in 2015 World Cup and 2016 World Twenty20.

All cricketers, umpires and curators who attended the meeting were PCB employees.

The first leg of the same meeting was held in Karachi which also received weak response from cricketers like Mohsin Khan, Iqbal Qasim and others.

The PCB had decided to take feedback from ex-players after Pakistan’s recent disappointing tours of Australia and New Zealand.
