Mohsin Naqvi exits early as Pakistan implode against India

New York: Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Mohsin Naqvi cut short his time in the stands on Sunday, leaving the venue before the final ball as Pakistan’s batting crumbled against India during their T20 World Cup encounter. Eyewitnesses at the ground confirmed that Naqvi, who had taken his seat among other officials, opted not to witness the closing stages of what turned into a one-sided contest.

The premature departure of the PCB chief quickly became a talking point among fans and media, symbolising the mounting frustration within Pakistan’s camp as their tournament hopes took another hit. While the exact moment of his exit was not clocked, stadium footage showed his chair vacant well before the last wicket fell, underlining the depth of embarrassment accompanying the defeat.

The loss intensifies scrutiny on Pakistan’s campaign, leaving them with a narrow path to the Super 8 stage and raising fresh questions about team selection and strategy, particularly their decision to rely heavily on spin options that proved ineffective against India’s batting line-up.
