Yasir Arafat, a former all-rounder, says that it is important for Pakistani players to improve their skills and fitness when they play in more than one format, especially Shaheen Shah, whose speed is slowing down because she is tired.
As I’ve previously stated, this is the time for players to work on their skill level and fitness, “he told Cricket Den. Shaheen Afridi is a case in point. I’m ecstatic when he bowls, but his speed graph is deteriorating. He bowls at speeds close to 90 mph but averages 83-84 mph in Test cricket. This is a concerning omen. “
While discussing some of the leading players’ hectic schedules, the former cricketer stated that he himself played a lot of county cricket, but that playing too much cricket without a break increases the risk of injury.
Shaheen Afridi is Hasan Ali’s choice as the greatest sportsman of all time.
“I’ve played a lot of county cricket myself, but my motivation was different because I didn’t get many opportunities to represent Pakistan.” I had the time and opportunity to play during the summers. However, these players, including Rizwan and Shaheen, already have significant experience in all three formats of the game. There are also numerous leagues, and there is no gap. “
While praising these superstars, Yasir stated, “It is abundantly clear that there is a global demand for Pakistan players as a result of the way we play our cricket.”
Yasir added that the cricket board should develop a long-term strategy for players who play in all three formats if they are to perform well at the upcoming T20 World Cup and other events.
“The Pakistan Cricket Board and A category players who are already playing in three formats, particularly fast bowlers, should look into this.” He stated, “They should have a long-term strategy.”
If you must, aim for the T20 World Cup and Asia Cup, as well as other series, as these are point-based events. If your star players become exhausted and injured, you will have no backup, “he concluded.
