Ramiz Raja Questions Masood's Captaincy After Test Loss To Bangladesh

Former Pakistan Cricket Board: Former Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Ramiz Raja criticised Shan Masood's captaincy after team's first Test loss against Bangladesh on Sunday. He slammed his decision of ruling out spinners from the playing 11 on Rawalpindi pitch.

Pakistan went into the game with four pacers and without any frontline spinner, which cost them immensely on the final day of the match as Bangladesh spinners - Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Shakib Al Hasan - spun web to bundle out hosts for 146 in the second innings, leaving them with a mere 30-run target to script history on Pakistani soil with a 10-wicket win, which became an embarrassment for Pakistan.

The veteran cricketer said that Pakistan's pacers have lost their spark and their speed has also reduced, which makes them less lethal.
