Rizwan: I don't deserve a Pakistan spot, vows to fight slump
Pakistan star Mohammad Rizwan admits his poor form has him questioning his Pakistan place, pledging self-criticism and a fight to rebound from the PSL slump.
Delhi — After Rawalpindi's latest PSL defeat, Mohammad Rizwan spoke candidly about his form, saying he does not deserve a Pakistan place at the moment if he cannot improve. He stressed accountability and said he is not afraid to face tough questions or retire if necessary, but remains determined to keep fighting the slump.
Rizwan cited his form in the Big Bash League as evidence of the gap between potential and performance, and he even referenced a behind the scenes conversation with Haris Rauf that underscored his honesty about where he stands. He acknowledged mistakes, insisted that they are human errors, and said he will continue to push for better returns for his team.
In the PSL, Rawalpindi has lost seven straight matches, sitting at the bottom of the table, as the side searches for a spark to end the run of defeats. The vulnerable captaincy and the ongoing underperformance have put pressure on the squad and sparked debate about Rizwan's future role if performances do not improve soon.
