Raja said the PCB's mid-series changes set an unwanted benchmark for cricket boards.

Former Pakistan cricketer Ramiz Raja has criticised the PCB for sacking multiple players and coaches in the middle of the England Test series. He described the board's actions as creating a world record in mid-series upheaval.

The PCB announced sweeping changes after England secured an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-Test series. Red-ball head coach Sarfaraz Ahmed was removed after a few months and replaced by white-ball coach Mike Hesson.

Australian Ashley Noffke took over from bowling coach Umar Gul as part of the overhaul that also saw seven players sent home from the tour.

Raja's criticism carries weight because he represents a generation of players who saw Pakistan's previous periods of instability from inside the dressing room.
