Former Pakistan captain Moin Khan recently made headlines by stating he doesn’t want to take up a position in the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) while his son, Azam Khan, is playing.
Azam Khan, with 14 T20I appearances, has faced criticism over his fitness and accusations of nepotism, given his father’s prominent cricketing career. He has managed a meagre 88 runs with an unbeaten high score of 30, averaging 8.80 at a strike rate of 133.33.
Moin Khan addressed these concerns head-on, declaring, “It doesn’t seem appropriate for me to take a position now that Azam is playing.” He previously held a position in the cricket board in 2013, but now he wants to ensure there’s no perceived conflict of interest.

Continued Commitment to Pakistan Cricket
Even though Moin is stepping back from official roles, he remains dedicated to the sport. “I am always available for Pakistan cricket,” he emphasized. He also touched on future roles, mentioning, “I will talk about it after Waqar Younis’s announcement.”
Moin highlighted some internal issues within the PCB, particularly regarding delays in surgeries due to the absence of a doctor. “Surgery will only happen after a doctor joins PCB,” he explained.
Reflecting on Pakistan’s recent World Cup preparations, Moin remarked, “The World Cup preparations were evident to everyone.”
However, he did not hide his disappointment with the team’s performance, saying, “As a former captain and cricketer, I was also disappointed with the cricket team’s performance.”

Moin stressed the importance of supporting new players while also calling for respectful farewells for departing cricketers.
“We should support new players, but we start discussing based on one performance,” he noted. Drawing a comparison with Indian cricket, he added, “Players in Pakistan should be given a respectful farewell like in India.”
Moin Khan’s stance highlights his commitment to fairness and integrity in Pakistan cricket, setting a positive example for both current and future generations.
