#ShameOnPCB Trends As Pakistan Board Leaves Out Imran Khan From I-Day Tribute Video
Former Pakistan captain Imran Khan remains one of the most decorated cricketers in the country's history. It was under his leadership that Pakistan won the 1992 World Cup. But, as Pakistan Cricket Board shared a video on social media, remembering the contributions of some of its greatest players, there was no mention of Imran Khan. Furious with the board's decision, fans took to Twitter to slam the PCB for its action. Even former chairman of the board, Khalid Mahmood, demanded the withdrawal of the video released by the PCB on Independence Day for ignoring Imran Khan's contribution to the game in the country.
But the board has come in for severe backlash and criticism for the video which does not mention or feature any snippet or picture of former captain, Imran who led Pakistan to the 1992 World Cup triumph.
