Champions Trophy: Pakistan cricket team’s performance in Champions Trophy 2025 was very poor. Pakistan first faced defeat by 60 runs against New Zealand, then suffered a crushing defeat against India too.
The last match of the Champions Trophy against Bangladesh was cancelled due to rain. In this way, Pakistan’s journey in the tournament ended without winning any match. After this, many big changes are expected in the team. Meanwhile, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has offered former Indian cricketer Ajay Jadeja to become the chairman. This may be a bit surprising to hear, but it is true. Let us know who gave him this offer and what was his reaction to it.
How Ajay Jadeja got the offer
Ajay Jadeja was appearing on a DP World show to analyse the Champions Trophy matches. An interesting incident took place during this time. A fan asked if a foreigner could become the chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board. Pakistani cricket legend Wasim Akram was the first to respond to this. He believed that this is a position that is under everyone’s scrutiny and requires daily press conferences. He said, “I doubt the board will think of a foreign name.” Soon after, former Pakistan bowler Waqar Younis pointed to Ajay Jadeja and offered him the position. However, this offer was not official but was merely a part of a discussion.
Ajay Jadeja’s answer
Ajay Jadeja’s response to this offer made everyone laugh. He said, “Wasim Bhai has children, I have too.” After this he said, “There are two aspects of a job, administrative and sports.
These can be separated. Fans and public don’t care how much profit the board has made or how many stadiums it has built. Fans and upcoming players just want to know how their cricket will develop.”
