Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) new chairman Ramiz Raja has lashed out at the Australian cricketers and said that they no longer play with aggression against the Indian team. He further added that the Aussie players have 'changed their DNA because of money.'
“Australians have changed their DNA because of money, they play against India happily and without aggressive approach. International cricketers have pressure as now they want to save their IPL contracts where they receive a lot of money plus add-ons,” Raja was quoted as saying to ARY News.
Recently, first New Zealand cancelled their white-ball tour against Pakistan, minutes before the commencement of the first ODI, citing security reasons and later, England followed the Kiwis abandoning their trip to the Asian country.
Raja took a dig at both sides and said that they ran away. “New Zealand ran away and England followed the same suit. They both have done wrong against us,” said Raja.
Pakistan are not left with any international assignments at present and will now feature in the World T20 2021 directly which is scheduled to be co-hosted by UAE and Oman in October-November. The Pakistan players are presently taking part in the domestic National T20 competition.
