It is noteworthy that since November last year, Hafeez had not only become the director of the Pakistan team but was also seen in the role of interim coach of the team on the New Zealand tour after the Australia tour.

Let us tell you that last year when Pakistan was on a tour to Australia for a three-match Test series, Hasan Ali was also a part of that team. Hasan Ali gave a big reaction It is worth noting that Hafeez recently said on the Club Praire Podcast with Michael Vaughan and Adam Gilchrist – Gilly, you tell me. When we are playing Test cricket, can a player sleep in the dressing room? And when 4-5 players are sleeping in the dressing room, should I, as a team director, allow this? On the other hand, on this statement of Hafeez, Hasan Ali said on Pakistan’s local media platform – I really don’t know, but whatever Hafeez said, it should be done. I don’t think anyone slept in the dressing room after that. When Hafeez said that I was not a part of the first game, all the players who were not part of the playing eleven were watching the game sitting in the dugout. The management was also sitting there. Ali further said- But I would say in Test cricket, especially for fast bowlers, when you bowl for a day and a half you need to recover, and you can take a nap of 20-30 minutes. But this is only for those who feel that they need it.

So, Harry further said about learning the tricks of Test cricket from Root- I have learned a little bit of cricket and shots from him. Root is at number 8 in the list of all-time Test batsmen.

Former Indian batting coach made a big prediction about Shubman Gill
Gill has been made the vice-captain of the team for the white ball series against Sri Lanka Shubman Gill (Photo Source: Getty Images) Indian young player Shubman Gill captained Team India for the first time on the Zimbabwe tour and under his leadership the young brigade won the T20 series 4-1. Earlier, he has captained Gujarat Titans. Now he has been made the vice-captain of the team for the white ball series against Sri Lanka. Meanwhile, former Indian batting coach Vikram Rathod believes that one day Gill will captain India in all three formats. In the five-match T20 series against Zimbabwe, Shubman Gill’s team had to face a big defeat in the very first match and in the IPL too, Gujarat Titans failed to perform well under his captaincy. In such a situation, questions started arising as soon as the first match was lost. However, under the leadership of Shubman Gill, the team won the series by registering consecutive wins in the remaining four matches. I am sure he will succeed in this role- Vikram Rathod Meanwhile, Vikram Rathore was quoted by NDTV Sports as saying, “Whatever I have seen of him, whether it was for Gujarat Titans or in Zimbabwe (when Gill captained the T20 series), he has done a good job. He has shown great body language, which is very important if you are leading a team. Now the BCCI has given him additional responsibility with the vice-captaincy and I am sure he will thrive in the role.” He further said, I think it is because of captaincy that Virat and Rohit could give their best and I think Shubman Gill will do the same. Although he is not the captain yet, but being in the leadership group, he will also give his best. Rathore said, I am sure that when you are in that role, leading others, it gives you additional responsibility, which is good. I think it is great for a youngster like Shubman, who can one day captain India in all three formats.
