Misbah-ul-Haq is a coward and a selfish captain: Shoaib Akhtar

Former Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar called skipper Misbah-ul-Haq "a coward" and "a selfish player" after Pakistan were crushed by 150 runs by West Indies in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 match on Saturday.

"I have not seen a more coward and selfish captain than Misbah," the 39-year-old Akhtar told Geo News. "He is not willing to bat up the order to protect the other players at a time when he needs to show inspiration. He is happy with his own runs and I don't know what coach Waqar Younis wants. He has no game plan or direction for the team."

Well Pakistani cricket seems to be on the same level as West Indies cricket. The only difference between the two cricketing nations is that the Pakistani fans are more vocal and active in the cricketing affairs. Well it is easy to play the blame game but how does Misbah batting up the order will protect the Pakistani batsmen? He bats at end and so the other batsmen will always be exposed.
