Kamran Akmal shows disappointment over not getting a central contract by the PCB

Pakistan’s controversial wicketkeepet, Kamran Akmal, was not very happy over Pakistan Cricket Board's decision of not offering him a central contract.

Akmal expressed massive disappointed after not getting a contract, and showed strong desire to play for his national side again.

The wicketkeeper batsman who represented Pakistan in the recent World Cup, stated that the PCB has been offering him a contract since the last 8 years, and this years axe is shocking for him.

However, the 29-year-old opening batsman said that he respects the board’s decision, and refused to comment on it.

During the ICC World Cup 2011, Akmal performed terribly behind the stumps, and was not too good with the bat either.

He dropped Ross Taylor twice in Shoaib Akthar’s over during the group match against New Zealand, which allowed the Kiwi team to hammer Pakistan badly.

After the New Zealand match, Akmal faced heavy criticism from Pakistani fans and media; however, his lean patch continued in the knock out round, as he dropped some crucial catches in the Semi-Final game against India, at Mohali

Apart from a dreadful wicket-keeping performance, the right-handed batsman did not provide run to his with the bat either.

After the World Cup, the national selection committee dropped Akmal from the squad for the West Indies tour, including 30-year-old, Mohammad Salman, in his place.

Now the governing body of cricket in Pakistan has not considered him in the list of 23 players for the central contracts, courtesy of his bad performance, which he was displaying from Australia’s tour in 2010. The only reason he was continually given chances was his experience.

Coming back to Akmal’s disappointment, he said that he will continue his cricket at the domestic level and prove his form.
