Feb. 8 (CRICKETNMORE) - Former Pakistan captain, Javed Miandad has blamed foreign coaches for bringing the national team on the brink of disaster.
According to PTI, Miandad also lashed out at the PCB's announcement that it would hold a two-day round table conference in Lahore in March with leading former captains and stalwarts to discuss and find solutions to Pakistan's cricket problems.
"No one has contacted me for this conference as yet I read about it in the newspapers in which my name also appeared as one of the invited players. But it makes no sense to have this conference with local players when the board is employing foreign coaches on heavy salaries," he said.

"These foreign coaches and support staff have caused damage to Pakistan cricket and brought it to this stage. So what is the purpose of now consulting local players," he said.
"There is too much of internal politics and nepotism in the board and that is why we don't see proper plans being executed for betterment of Pakistan cricket," he stated.
The former great made it clear that if immediate steps were not taken for improving the structure than Pakistan cricket would slip further. "We will see more bad performances.," said Miandad.
