Seeing the One Day final and the horrible standards of fielding, it made me think who is the responsible for player development in Pakistan.
Let me explain.
In the UK a player is lets say contracted to Yorkshire or Lancashire, the county will invest in the player and train him. Diet, fitness, and his batting, bowling, fielding skills.
The same happens in Australia when a player is part of a Shield team like NSW.
but in Pakistan, within the same year, the player will play for PIA, then for Karachi in the One day cup, then for Rawalpindi RAMS, then for another team. Basically a new team in every tournament.
So the question is
1. Who develops the players?
2. Do these various teams have a dedicated coaching staff or literally for every tournament a new team is assembled.
This is a serious case of concern, if literally no one is responsible and everything is upon the dysfunctional NCA.
Who shows these guys their video of their batting, bowling etc...
