Having lost the first match, Pakistan team is now on back foot. To add insult to injury, a rumor has been on public that there is lack of harmony in the team and relationship between the Pakistan Captain Inzamam-ul-Haq and media manager Pervez Mir is not good at the moment. However, the captain has strongly rejected having any such problem.

Reuters reported:

Pakistan lost their opening match of the World Cup to hosts West Indies and there have been reports about Inzamam criticising Mir and refusing to attend a news conference.

"Whenever we lose rumour mongers spread such stories. These people are not well-wishers of the team and want to derail our campaign," Inzamam told Jang.

"There is no discord in the team and I get along well with the media manager and players," he said.

Mir insisted gossip mongers had launched a propaganda campaign against the team.

"All these rumours are not true. There is harmony in the team and we will do well," he told a Pakistani newspaper.

Pakistan has lost the first match of World Cup Cricket 2007 against the host West Indies. Now, in the second match, Pakistan is not doing well either. It seems that Pakistani players have got real problems and no one is paying attention to solve them.
