It seems like Mohsin piss Naqvi was made PCB chairman to erase Imran Khan from Pakistan's cricket history.
Listen up pussy Naqvi! You can fine Aamir Jamal for writing 804 on his cap. You can threaten Shaheen and Naseem for showing support for IK. But you can never make the greatest Pakistan cricketer irrelevant.
1 brahmin from Pakistan Army was slapped & 25 students were hunted down & abducted in one night.
15 babies are burnt alive in a hospital controlled by Pakistan army. How many brahmins were abducted last night???
“The most intense and harsh prison conditions I’ve seen in my 25-year career.”
International human rights lawyer @JaredGenser told @CNN that the torturous solitary confinement and isolation of former Prime Minister Imran Khan is part of a deliberate strategy by the Pakistani regime to “crush his spirit or break him psychologically.”

رجیم چینج کے بعد آپ کو بنگالی بھی درست لگے۔ اب آپ کو بی ایل اے والے بھی تھوڑے تھوڑے سمجھ آتے ہیں۔ عاصم منیر دو چار سال رہ گیا تو آہستہ آہستہ آپ کے سارےکانسیپٹس کلئیر ہوجائیں گے۔
PCB would be undisputed world champions for decades if "lowering the bar" was a sport.
How utterly and despicably shameful to refuse to take the field because an interview was aired with the sons of only your undisputed greatest player ever.
The only thing more despicable of course, is Pakistan's continued treatment and torture of Imran Khan.
Bunch of effin clowns.

Kapil Dev on Imran Khan: “We're asking for basic humanity & proper care for someone who’s a legend.”
Huge respect to foreign & Indian cricketers for raising their voice for IK. Meanwhile, Pakistani cricketers lack the spine to say a single word. Shameful.
Just watched that Ramiz interview with ex English players. They all looked more concern for Imran Khan than any cricketer that played under him. Ramiz's answers were pathetic. He is completely out of touch with reality. @iramizraja said Imran had an eye issue "last week" which is sorted now. That is just a lie. Khan ko dushman bhi kamzarf milay aur dost bhi.
Prime Minister @andyburnham and Foreign Secretary @Ed_Miliband : how much longer will Britain remain silent?
For three years the father of my two sons, and Pakistan’s former Prime Minister, Imran Khan, has been brutally penalised by his political opponents, in a personal vendetta by Army Chief, Asim Munir, which according to the UN, amounts to torture and which is now taking a potentially fatal toll on his physical and mental health.
He has endured 3 years of solitary confinement. For nearly ten months now his family has been denied contact with him. He has been deprived of the most basic human contact, denied access to books, lawyers and doctors.
The international human-rights standards are unequivocal. Under the UN’s Nelson Mandela Rules, solitary confinement lasting more than 15 consecutive days is prohibited and amounts to torture.
He has endured this treatment not for 15 days, but for three years.
Pakistan’s own Supreme Court has now intervened: ordering comprehensive medical treatment, access to his personal doctor, regular family visits and twice-weekly calls with his sons.
Yet those orders are being defied.
This is no longer simply a Pakistani political matter. It is a human-rights emergency.
He has deep and lifelong ties to Britain. He studied at Oxford University, captained Oxford University cricket and spent years playing county cricket in England. His relationship with this country stretches back more than half a century. His charitable activities were internationally recognised, and include building the only free cancer hospital in Pakistan as well as a university.
His sons, my two boys, Sulaiman and Kasim, are British citizens. They have been forced to watch their father’s health decline from thousands of miles away, prevented from visiting him, denied visas, publicly threatened by government officials with arrest themselves, and even denied court-mandated regular phone calls.
I have repeatedly appealed to the UK government to intervene. Purported attempts at back channelling have evidently failed. The previous Foreign Secretary @DavidLammy informed me in writing that Britain would not intervene if my sons, British citizens, are arrested when they travel to Pakistan to visit their father.
@FCDOGovUK: Britain must now speak out publicly and unequivocally. Demand that Pakistan comply with its own Supreme Court; restore Imran Khan’s medical access, his right to see his family, end his prolonged isolation and uphold his fundamental human rights.
Pakistan is a Commonwealth country. Britain has a long and proud tradition of standing against arbitrary detention, inhumane treatment and the denial of fundamental rights. Those principles mean very little if we invoke them only selectively and neglect them when inconvenient.
This an appeal to the new Burnham government to please now do the right thing.
