“Has the pitch been made or..” Why did Naseem Shah raise questions on the pitches made by his own cricket board?

Naseem Shah, one of Pakistan’s leading fast bowlers, openly expressed his displeasure over the pitches in Pakistan in a press conference. Naseem Shah (Image Source: Twitter) The first match of the Test series is being played between Pakistan and Bangladesh. After the fourth day of the first Test match, a debate has once again erupted over the pitches in Pakistan. The condition of pitches in the country has been a controversial issue, especially following criticism during Pakistan’s home series against Australia and England in 2022. Critics said the pitches were highly favourable to the batsmen, leading to an unbalanced contest that did not suit Pakistan’s strengths. Hopes were high that the new administration would address these concerns by improving the quality of pitches for home Tests. However, similar problems have been reported in the ongoing Test against Bangladesh in Rawalpindi, where the pitch remains highly favourable for batsmen. These questions are being raised after Bangladesh scored 565 runs in the first innings. Pakistani bowlers are now getting angry themselves This pitch has not only affected the competitiveness of the match but is also causing frustration among the Pakistani bowlers, who are struggling a lot. Naseem Shah, one of Pakistan’s leading fast bowlers, openly expressed his displeasure during the press conference. Let’s know what Naseem Shah said about the pitches Naseem said in the post-match press conference, “I believe we have played many such series where we have got such pitches. People tried their best to prepare a helpful pitch, but I think the surface was not that helpful due to the heat or excessive sunlight. We have to think about how we can take advantage of playing on home ground, because you have to win the match at any cost. We did not get the help from the pitch that we expected. But everyone tried their best.” Asked how Pakistan can take advantage of playing on home grounds, Naseem said efforts could be made to aid the spinners if green pitches are difficult to maintain. Naseem further said, “This is not my expertise, but we have to use the home advantage. If we cannot make green pitches that help fast bowlers, then give us pitches that help spinners. Test cricket has come a long way now. Fans are coming to watch matches even in this heat. You feel the need to entertain them. You should not feel that you are facing challenges while playing the game.”

Naseem Shah does not allow his father to play matches Naseem, in a recent interview, opened up about the family aspect of his career and how the sport has taken a toll on his father Abbas’s health. Speaking to Cricbuzz, Naseem said, “My father is going through some health issues. There was a time when he didn’t know anything about cricket, but now he watches every ball and gets sad when we lose. So, before every big match, I call my brothers to make sure that our father doesn’t watch the match. I fear this might lead to some major health issues. It’s like I am playing two matches simultaneously.” Naseem further said, “There is a lot going on behind the scenes in the lives of cricketers that people are not aware of. Sometimes you just look for small moments of happiness.” How is the reaction of the family when they lose the match to India? Naseem said, “People come up to me in restaurants and ask why we lost. Even my relatives have asked me about this. I understand that their emotions are fueled by social media and as a player, all I can do is listen to them.” Naseem will take the field in the first match of the two-Test series against Bangladesh on August 21 in Rawalpindi.

There is a language problem with foreign coaches, we need a language translator: Naseem Shah

Pakistani players have long had problems speaking and learning English. Naseem Shah (Image Credit- Twitter) Language is a very important medium for the exchange of ideas. Cricket, the world’s second most loved sport, is also not untouched by this. Cricketers have to use language for planning and other important work before playing a match. So when players do this work, they are most comfortable in their local or mother tongue. But when they have to speak or understand a language different from this, and if they have not learned that language, then they may face difficulties. On the other hand, Pakistani fast bowler Naseem Shah has put forth his views on this issue. It is worth mentioning that for some time now, the coaches of Pakistan’s national cricket team have been foreigners and the current white ball coaches are Gary Kirsten and Jason Gillespie. Kirsten is South African while Gillespie is Australian and is more comfortable in English. On the other hand, the understanding of English by Pakistani players is well known. Also, when Naseem communicates with foreign coaches, he finds it a bit challenging. Also, to end the challenge, Naseem has talked about a language translator. Naseem Shah gave a big statement Let us tell you that in a recent press conference, Naseem Shah, as quoted by Cricket Pakistan, said – There is a language problem with foreign coaches. We need someone to translate the language. It is easier to communicate with the coach in your own language. Naseem further said about Pakistan’s performance in the World Cup 2023 and T20 World Cup 2024- Our comeback was not good and we cannot deny that we did not play good cricket. Criticism is a part of it and we should bear it until things get better. This is a good opportunity to come back, play better and perform as a team.
