Pakistan Test captain Shan Masood faced an uncomfortable moment during a recent press conference when a journalist asked a controversial question. It was Masood’s first time speaking to the media since being kept as Pakistan’s captain, even after several losses since he was made skipper last year.

A video of the incident is circulating on social media, where a reporter asks Masood if he has ever thought about resigning because of the number of losses Pakistan has faced under his leadership.

Reporter – “(Aapne bola jub tak woh mauka de rahe hain, avail karenge. Kabhi khud say koi khuddari nahi aati ki ‘yaar haar gaye, performance nahi ho rahi, chod ke chale jayein?) You said till PCB gives chances you will avail them. Don’t you have the self-respect to call it quits since the team is losing and not able to perform?

After hearing the reporter’s question, Masood glanced at the PCB media manager, said a few words, and then chose to completely ignore the question.

After the press conference ended, the media manager thanked the reporters and reminded them not to show disrespect to the Pakistan captain.

The media manager asserted, “Pakistan ka captain baitha hai, aap bilkul sawal karein but please show respect and particularly I am referring Javed. It was not the appropriate way of asking Pakistan captain the question that you asked.”
