When asked about what he has been working on in recent times, Ishan stated that he has been working on his pace hitting in the middle overs when the ball gets softer. Arguing that hitting sixes has never been a problem for him, but he wants to start manipulating the field more.

Did not expect this from Faulkner: Mohammad Hafeez wants action against allrounder

Former Pakistan all-rounder Mohammad Hafeez has come down heavily against Australian James Faulkner over the recent controversy in the Pakistan Super League. The right hander who played alongside Faulkner in the previous season of the PSL gave an emotional interview to Samaa TV stating that the whole situation really hurt him as a Pakistani. “...the way we take care of our overseas player and respect them, I haven’t seen that in any part of the world. That is why it hurt, especially because I was not expecting this from Faulkner. Last year we played a season together and I found him very professional. ” PSL 2022 - which is entering its final strides of the season, blew up on February 19 with the Australian all rounder making allegations against the Pakistan Cricket Board. He explained that the PCB chose not to honour his contractual agreements and the board’s treatment of him has been disgraceful. PCB took a while to respond to the allegations and called the cricketer a liar on social media platform Twitter. They argued that in the seven years of the competition not a single player has ‘ever complained about the non fulfilment of PCB’s contractual obligations’ and broke down the specifics of the money transfer. The board further went to allege that Faulkner had deliberately damaged the hotel property for which the PCB had to pay out of its own pockets. Hafeez seemed to tow the same line and stated, “…in the last seven seasons, I haven’t heard a single complaint from a Pakistani cricketer or an overseas player on financial concerns. I feel the allegations were wrong on Pakistan cricket and PCB must take an action on it.” At the moment, the PCB is on schedule for its final stretch with Multan Sultans, Lahore Qalandars, Peshawar Zalmi and Islamabad United preparing for the playoffs clashes that begin on Wednesday, 23 February.
