British-Pakistani journalist Aatif Nawaz questioned the PCB's decision to sack its bowling coach after the Lord's Test.
He argued Pakistan's bowlers, not batters, were the ones taking wickets.
Nawaz called the mass overhaul a counterproductive move to placate angry fans.
Pakistan's decision to dismantle their squad and coaching staff mid-tour has drawn criticism from many quarters, and BBC commentator Aatif Nawaz has added a pointed voice to the chorus.

Slough, England — Residents of the small industrial town of Slough, just west of London, told CBS News the soaring temperatures have been difficult to bear this year as Britain records its hottest summer ever. But emerging research suggests Slough may have had it particularly rough, as it sits next to the second largest data center hub on the planet.
"Slough is very hot. Every year we think this is the hottest, and then the next year it gets hotter than the last," Nabeel Nawaz, who runs a restaurant in the center of the town, told CBS News as he sweltered through a July heatwave with temperatures in the 90s.
The low hum of cooling units on Slough's massive data center hub, less than two miles from the heart of the town, provides a non-stop soundtrack for the surrounding area.
The coolers regulate the temperature of the hundreds of computer servers inside the cavernous buildings, of which there are about 40 in Slough, transferring excess heat from the machines into water or air and then venting or evaporating the heat into the atmosphere outside.
Many of the data centers around the world work this way, and all that excess heat could be creating a "heat island effect," increasing local temperatures by an average of 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit, with extreme localized temperature spikes of up to 16 degrees, according to research published by scientists at the University of Cambridge earlier this year.
