Former Pakistan Test spinner and ex-chief selector Iqbal Qasim criticizes Pakistan’s young cricketers, saying they are not focusing enough on developing their skills and game awareness. Speaking on Wednesday, Qasim also cites Bishan Singh Bedi as an example, pointing to how past players approached training and preparation.
The outlets frame Qasim’s remarks in similar terms, centering on what he portrays as a shift in priorities among the newer generation. One outlet characterizes the issue primarily as insufficient attention to money-driven temptations, while the other emphasizes an overall lack of seriousness about cricket fundamentals. Both accounts emphasize that Qasim’s criticism is directed at practice habits and cricketing mindset rather than at a specific match or series.
No additional details are provided in the sources about particular players, teams, or incidents prompting the comments, and the statements are presented as general commentary on the current state of Pakistan cricket development.
