Not sure what's this talent hunt.

This is a ready admission that PCB's system does not work.

We should have kids coming through a proper system not these random trials.

No wonder Pakistan cricket is so messed up. How can anyone be judged based on 5 or 6 balls, especially batsman.

Well don't understand after having so many tournaments for the youngsters why Pakistan cricket is still reeling on international level?

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Just look at the prize money they are giving do you think any talented youngsters will join these tournament and quit studying for 30k PKR?

Just increase it 10 times and then you will start getting more talent
