Basit Ali on Aleem Dar: Pakistan had to face a shameful defeat in the Multan Test. Despite scoring 556 runs in the first innings, Shan Masood-led Pakistan lost by an innings and 47 runs. After this the Pakistan team faced a lot of embarrassment. Also, major changes were seen in the selection committee of Pakistan Cricket Board. ICC umpire Aleem Dar was included in the selection committee of Pakistan Cricket Board, but former Pakistani cricketer Basit Ali is unhappy with the decision. Earlier, Aleem Dar announced his retirement as an umpire.
‘Aleem Dar is a great umpire as well as a great human being, but..’
Basit Ali believes that Aleem Dar should not have been a part of the selection committee of Pakistan Cricket Board. He said that this is a surprising decision. Aleem Dar is a great umpire as well as a great human being, but he should not have been there. Now questions will arise in the coming days. He also said that if you include an umpire in the selection committee of Pakistan Cricket Board, then you should include a media person as the match referee.
Aleem Dar is the umpire who has umpired in most international matches.
Let us tell you that Aleem Dar has umpired in 448 international matches. No umpire has umpired in international matches more than this. Recently, Aleem Dar had said that he will umpire for the last time in Pakistan’s domestic season 2024-25. Now Aleem Dar will select the Pakistan cricket team for the remaining 2 test matches against England. Apart from Aleem Dar, there are Aaqib Javed, Azhar Ali and Hasan Cheema in the selection committee of Pakistan Cricket Board.
