Iqbal Mohammad Ali, a leading Pakistan parliamentarian, has appealed to the country's President and Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) patron Asif Ali Zardari to remove chairman of the board Ijaz Butt, who he blames for the decline of the national side.
In a scathing two-page letter written to the President, Ali argues that Butt's administration has seen the team reduced to the status of "minnows”, reports Cricinfo.
"The chairman and his close aides have shoddily let down your confidence in them by making a mockery of management ethics at the board," wrote Ali, who also heads the national assembly's standing committee on sports.
"It is therefore recommended that a very dynamic and energetic administrator be made the chairman of the board so that the affairs of cricket in Pakistan are run professionally. [The] incompetence of Mr Ijaz Butt has already brought enough shame for our country at international level."
Butt took over as chairman of the PCB from Nasim Ashraf in October 2008.
