Blame Najam Sethi Mr. Puncture! PCB to earn $150m from broadcasting rights

[WishLivePak]

Before PCB would lose 70% of value because there wasn't a firm plan of series with India. But since it'll have two, it can get a lot of dollars.

Title is to poke fun at a member who likes to blame everything on Najam Sethi.

No point in earning so much money if you can't put it to good use.

W.e anyone may say the only Show I watch on GEO is of Nejam sethi, the guy makes sense and is a smart man.

I guess PCB shouldn't accept this money because they can't put it to good use. Also gov't shouldn't collect additonal taxes if it cannot be put to good news. We should, for both examples, give money to non-pakistanis because they're experts at putting money to good use.

He's a done a good job.

When he took over PCB was in complete shambles. Isolated in the world and about to get a very raw deal by ICC.

But since then done a lot of deals and changed PCB set up. He made over 100 people redundant including Miandad who was earning for nothing.

Fruits of his labor are yet to come. If they can hit this $150 million revenue over next 5 years then Pakistan cricket can only grow stronger.

The only thing that I have found disappointing with his reign is the lack of attention on tv broadcasting itself. PTV sports does such a poor job, graining pictures with Ufone adverts everywhere. Its sickening.

Sethi needs to invest in sports broadcasting infrastructure and presentation of Pak cricket. HD cameras at the very least for the love of God.

I think getting associate teams to tour Pakistan is the biggest challenge and something I know they are working on. Zaka Ashraf was a disaster for Pakistan cricket. PPP once again showing they are completely clueless in governance.

Najam Sethi is a logical guy, I watch his show on Geo too. If he can put this money to improving cricket infrastructure and establishing Academies in Pakistan then it's all good.

If he is a terrorist why is he not being convicted ?.

I have to agree that, He is a smart man and he can do alot of good to PCB, as many people don't like him I think no one is perfect and everyone has a past but I think we should allow this man to do his job He looks more then capable.

Actually PML-N put him in jail back in the 90s.

Yet some "members" continue to think he is very loyal to PML etc. Let's not forget Imran didn't object to Sethi being made care taker chief minister of Punjab.

Sour grapes are sour

Last deal which PCB done with Tensports was also of 150 Million Dollar in 2009 or 2007 .... So we move no where..... 2015 with this rate is failure.... Do your research first before wasting time of other and making folish threads ....with which channel they did this deal????
