Taking a jibe at Indian cricket, Rameez was also calling it a million dollar industry. But in the current digital world, old things are not forgotten and the same happened in the case of Rameez Raja.
‘Get guaranteed to play with India’
Till a few years ago, when Rameez Raja used to work as a commentator in this million dollar industry Indian cricket, especially in IPL, then his language was completely different about India and one proof of this has gone viral through old videos on Twitter. . In this video, Rameez Raja is even seen saying that the Pakistani board needs to be shameless for money. According to Rameez Raja,
If he (BCCI) is generating 80 per cent funds and is asking for 21 per cent, then let it be given. Out of this, Pakistan also earns 75 million to 95 million. Second, you get guaranteed series with India and England.

‘No problem even if you have to be shameless’
Not only this, Rameez had even said that for the sake of money one needs to make a deal to play with India and for that there is no need to show Pakistanism (patriotism) and one should not shy away from being shameless. Rameez said, you have to play your cards wisely. You cannot cancel this. Please don’t show Pakistaniness in this. Make a deal, for that you have to be shameless too, I say. India-Pakistan is a great series.
