It's not cricket, PM

21 Apr, 2019

That the PTI government is still learning the ropes is a fact. Its lack of experience has however immensely harmed the state of economy in the country. Higher inflation, battered rupee and what not. The prime minister's assertion that it is only a "batting order" shuffle does not effectively counter the widely-held perception that the PTI government is in panic after it has miserably failed to deliver. Why the Kaptan has replaced his opener (Asad Umar) with someone (Dr Hafeez Sheikh) who does not belong to his team at all? The Prime Minister must admit that he had failed to read the wicket and appreciate the vagaries of weather in the first place. He must stop considering governance as a Test match without any further loss of time. His approach to politics is not cricket.
