  • Pakistan players scared of asking for break, communication gap with team management: Amir

    Pakistan pacer Mohammed Amir says players of the national team are scared of asking for a break even when they feel exhausted as they apprehend being dropped from the side altogether due to a “communication gap” with the team management. Amir, who has retired from Test cricket to prolong his career in the shorter formats, said communication and understanding needs to be better between players and the management.

    “Ask the team physio the problems I was facing with my eyes, knees and shoulders and I kept on telling them to manage my workload no one listened,” he alleged. “I remember playing in the first match of the World Cup with spasms and after taking pain killers.
