Pakistan cricket finds itself in yet another controversy after PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi compared Pakistan’s recent struggles with India’s loss to Ireland and South Africa’s defeat to Namibia. But are those situations really comparable? With seven players sent home, coaches removed mid-tour and a dressing room thrown into chaos, the bigger question is why Pakistan keeps reaching for comparisons instead of confronting its own problems. Rupha Ramani breaks down why Naqvi's comparison simply does not stand up. The Asian Games in Japan have a very different problem. With accommodation stretched after the number of athletes swelled to around 17,000, cricket boards have reportedly raised questions over the facilities available to their players. Now, Japan Cricket Association chief James Allan says cricketers could actually get better accommodation than athletes from several other sports. Rupha Ramani looks at why cricket's growing clout could once again be giving it an edge over other sport
