Former Pakistan cricket team wicket-keeper batter Kamran Akmal urged the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to learn from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) amid the national team's dismal run.

Akmal said that there is a massive difference between PCB and BCCI when it comes to their respective approaches while he went on to praise how the Indian cricket board handles matters in a professional manner.
