Pakistan Cricket: The history of Pakistan cricket is full of many great players. Pakistan once had a strong hold on world cricket on the strength of great players like Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Shoaib Akhtar, Imran Khan, Zaheer Abbas, and Javed Miandad, but in recent years this team is going through a bad phase. Its condition has become such that it is proving difficult for it to even win a Test series at home. Amidst this difficult period, coach Gary Kirsten has taken up the task of bringing back the golden days of Pakistan cricket.
Let us tell you that Pakistan has to play a series of 3 Test matches on its tour of England in October. Since playing the final of the T20 World Cup 2022, the team’s performance has declined. After failing to make it to the final 4 of the ODI World Cup in 2023, it was also eliminated in the first round of the 2024 T20 World Cup. Recently, the team lost the Test series 0-2 at home against Bangladesh.
One of the reasons for Pakistan’s poor performance is said to be factionalism in the team and to overcome this, the Pakistan Cricket Board organized a connection camp in which many players along with the coach participated. During this, a roadmap was prepared to improve the fortunes of Pakistan cricket.
Coach Kirsten laid down 3 conditions
Let us tell you that during the Connection Camp, the coach of the limited overs team Kirsten put three conditions in front of the players. Kirsten has demanded professional attitude, self-respect and unity from the players.
We need to change the system
Kirsten said that everyone wants the Pakistan team to be successful but some steps will have to be taken for this. He said, “I think we all want a successful team. We want the team to do well in everything. There is no reason why it should not do so. This is a very talented team. But you have to take some steps to be successful. Our focus is on this. We know that we need to change the system of the country. There is competition to make a place in the team.”
Pakistan will host Champions Trophy next year
Pakistan is scheduled to host the ODI format Champions Trophy, which is known as the mini World Cup, in their country next year. This trophy was last held in 2017, when Pakistan won it by defeating India. Now the team has to defend its title, which will prove to be a big assignment for coach Gary Kirsten.
