It will assist me in practising bowling in a more effective manner. Even just thirty minutes of bowling during the camp would be very beneficial for me, added the seasoned pacer.

This is not the Twenty20 World Cup, when bowlers are expected to bowl four overs without any trouble,” he explained.”Our selectors need to get to work on putting together the best possible combinations.” In order to form strong combinations, he insisted that veteran players and youth players should be brought in.
Pakistani athletes
The consent of the Pakistani government is required for Pakistani athletes to compete in the upcoming World Cup in India. When the time draws nearer, PCB will make an application to the federal government for permission to participate.Things have been more tricky ever since India decided not to compete in the Asia Cup in Pakistan, where it was held. The PCB had proposed a hybrid approach in order to host the Asia Cup, providing India with the opportunity to play their matches in countries other than Pakistan. On the other hand, the Indian cricket board is exerting pressure on ACC member boards in an attempt to convince them to move the event away from Pakistan.therefore, the official decision on the Asia Cup has not yet been made.
