Good to see international cricketers coming here.

 

[MenInG]

Seems that they dont have an issue training in Pakistan!

 

[rhony]

Great initiative by PCB.

 

[angrypathan]

Good to see. Also good to see that the players seem to be locals rather than subcontinent expats

 

[Rana]

Further emphasising the point that its the high profiles that are the only ones reluctant to travel to Pakistan. These are emerging players but I can gaurentee you that around 85-90% of English domestic cricketers that are not ECB central contract players will have no problem touring Pakistan

 

[Last Monetarist]

I am a bit uncomfortable seeing this, kinda cements the perception of us harbouring a huge chip on our shoulders. Denmark and Serbia don't play cricket to any serious level, so this is really meaningless apart from showing that Pakistan is safe for random travellers with a European heritage.

Serbia - surprisingly

What is the point of this exercise? I would rather have the same resources spent on our own players.

 

[IAJ]

Serbia - surprisingly

Yeah, very so, but good for Cricket.

Little known fact but Freddie Klokker, a Dane, has played county cricket and BPL.....

At his peak, Ole Mortensen could have played for many teams in 80s. Denmark actually was quite a decent cricket team - I think, till late 80s or early 90s they were actually better team than BD. Sadly, cricket has died in Denmark.

Bit random but good that Serbian and Danish players are getting to experience proper cricket facilities.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

They are going back sunburnt

 

[Kroll]

Encouraging to see that some western countries feel confident and happy enough to send their players to Pakistani facilities for practice.

Wow impressed with your knowledge. Where and How has you so much knowledge? Ole Mortensen was my coach 7-years ago. He has bowler to VIv, Tendulkar and many World class players.

Warwickshire had a Danish bowler called Westergaard in the late 90`s and he was highly rated but never quite made it and as someone has also mentioned Mortensen was a very good bowler for Derbyshire. How did cricket get into Serbia?
