KARACHI - Director General PCB former Test star Javed Miandad here on Thursday blamed the poorly planned cricket system implemented during the past seven years for the decline of Pakistan domestic cricket and said a new system was being evolved from next year. Talking to media here at the National Stadium officially first time after being named Director General of the PCB, the former Pakistan captain hoped that the new system which was being discussed would help lifting the standard of national cricket which had suffered greatly. He said that the blue print of the system was not final and could be changed whenever required. The focus was on evolving an effective system which would help Pakistan cricket in the longer run. He said when he took charge of his new post in the PCB and was given the responsibility for running domestic cricket, he found out that the system introduced during the last seven years was the facing problem in domestic cricket area. It had adversely affected the system and that was the main cause of decline in domestic cricket standard. He praised the system that remained in place between 1983 and 1997 and said during that period, Pakistan not only won major events like World Cup but also produced some top cricketers. "But once that system was replaced, the standard of the game declined," he said. He said the new system which was being discussed would be a mix of cricket associations and provincial cricket associations. All the cricket authorities across the board would hold full power under their jurisdiction and would be responsible for promoting the game in the new system. He said cricket associations like Karachi Lahore, Quetta, and others would be retained under the new system and provincial cricket associations would be added to the system. All the four provincial associations would look after the promotion of the game in the interior of their areas. "For example, in Sindh the provincial cricket association would look after areas in the interior and the KCCA and Hyderabad would look after the development of the game in their jurisdiction," he added. The new system which was under discussion would be implemented from next year through the new constitution of the PCB. He said the second problem after a faulty domestic system that had affected Pakistan cricket was lack of employment opportunities to cricketers. He said the cricketers badly need employment and also appealed to the banks and multinational companies to come forward and raise cricket teams that would provide financial support to the game. "In my time, banks and other companies played a significant role in employing cricketers and that was the reason that Pakistan had immense talented players," he said. He said the banks should understand and their responsibilities to cricket and they should invest the money they earned from the public in the game. He said the banks and multinationals would get much more in return in the shape of name and fame from whatever amount they spent in cricket. He said those banks who had been allotted lands for creating sporting infrastructure may lose those lands if they did not invest in cricket. Those play grounds were allotted to them when they had sports teams and when they do not have teams, those lands could be taken back. He avoided all queries during Q and A session related to Indian team's coming tour of Pakistan. He said the queries should be put to top PCB officials who were authorised to speak on the subject.
