PCB Posts New Promotional Video Featuring Imran Khan In Response To Social Media Backlash
Two days back, we shared with you guys that PCB released a cricket documentary for the upcoming Cricket World Cup (CWC) 2023 on August 14, 2023. The promotional video faced intense backlash due to its omission of key moments featuring Imran Khan, the iconic 1992 World Cup-winning captain. People were quite furious that Imran Khan’s cricket contributions have not been recognized. The backlash was quite fast and harsh, with fans criticizing the PCB for aligning with the political agenda. Notable figures including Wasim Akram requested the quick removal of the video and an official apology. After this whole drama, PCB has recently released an updated version of the video featuring Imran Khan as well.
PCB Faced Severe Backlash In The Past Few Days
Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) released an updated version of the cricket documentary, labeling it as the “original version.” However, it came after severe backlash over the absence of Imran Khan in the promotional video. PCB stated that the previous video had excluded “significant clips due to time constraints.”
The PCB has launched a promotional campaign leading up to the CWC 2023. One of the videos was uploaded on 14th August 2023. Due to its length, the video was abridged and some important clips were missing. This has been rectified in the complete version of the video ⤵️ pic.twitter.com/Rz2OBDyI9i

The good part is that PCB finally rectified the mistake and released the full video on August 16, 2023. It is quite clear from the video now that it has recognized IK’s cricket contributions. The updated version has at least four parts that accentuated Khan’s contributions, including him holding the coveted 1992 Worl Cup trophy together with footage of his binding performance in the final match. This would be a sigh of relief for IK’s fans who were quite sad and angry over PCB’s last video.
