Rizwan Shocks Fans With Response to Controversial Question by Journalist

Pakistan wicketkeeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan surprised fans and journalists alike after calmly responding to a blunt and controversial question during a post-match press conference in PSL 11.

A journalist directly questioned Rizwan’s future in Pakistan’s T20 setup and bluntly pointed to his recent poor performances in franchise cricket. He even suggested that younger players might deserve opportunities instead of him.

The team manager attempted to stop Rizwan from answering since the query was not related to the Pakistan Super League. However, the Rawalpindiz captain insisted on responding and addressed the question without showing any anger or frustration.

Rizwan openly admitted that his recent performances had not been up to standard and acknowledged that he himself had previously told teammates that such form did not justify a place in the national side.

He said players are human and go through difficult phases, but rejected the idea of giving up cricket because of criticism. Rizwan emphasized that he remains committed to working harder rather than stepping away from the game.

Retirement or breaks should only come when a player no longer has the ability to compete, he added.

Clips from the exchange circulated widely. Cricket geeks have been praising his calm demeanor and willingness to accept criticism publicly.
