KARACHI (TheSportsNext) July 27, 2012: A number
of Pakistani national cricketers were irked by a decision by the Pakistan
Cricket Board (PCB) which stopped them from taking part in the Ramadan cricket
tournaments, sources said.
The PCB authorities have decided against allowing the
probables for the 2012 ICC World Twenty20 to participate in the Ramadan cricket
festivities so as to avoid losing any of them due to an injury but cricketers
are not finding it easy to feel happy about it as they wanted these tournaments
to regain their shape and form ahead of a hectic schedule.
These cricketers are of the view that there is a huge
difference between training in the nets and playing real cricket games and the
match pressure helps them getting accustomed to the requirements of the game.
With the PCB selectors yet to announced the squad for One
Day Internationals against Australia, the senior cricketers believe that the
televised matches would have given them the chance to showcase their form at
national level and bid for their place in the national team.
