Muhammad Hafeez Reveals Startling Revelations About Babar Azam and Pakistan’s Coaching Team.
Former Pakistan Team Director Muhammad Hafeez has disclosed that six months ago, ex-captain Babar Azam, Team Director Mickey Arthur, and Head Coach Grant Bradburn informed the team’s fitness trainer that fitness was not a current priority and encouraged players to play freely. Hafeez stated, “Before my appointment as team director, Babar Azam and the coaching staff had collectively decided that fitness was not crucial, and players should have the freedom to play regardless of their fitness levels.
” He expressed concern that neglecting fitness, a crucial aspect in modern cricket, for the past six months reflected incompetence within the national team setup. Hafeez further explained, “Upon my arrival as team director, the fitness trainer informed me that the players’ fat levels and skin folds had doubled compared to six months prior, and some players couldn’t even complete a 2-kilometer run.
