While shedding light on the upcoming Champions Cup Naqvi said, “The Champions Cup will produce great talent, and we’ll have records for the games that happen. For surgery, you need all the tools to perform it. These 150 players that have been selected, 80% of it has been done by AI (Artificial intelligence), and 20% using humans. Nobody can challenge that. We gave about 20% weightage to our selection committee. If we replace a player with a worse one, you’ll be the first to complain. We’ll have records and we’ll all be able to see transparently who deserves a place in the team.”
