The Pakistan cricket team’s unconventional military-style training ahead of the T20 World Cup 2024 has left fans bewildered. The team, under captain Babar Azam, is undergoing rigorous training with the nation’s military to enhance discipline and fitness levels.
Videos circulating on social media show players participating in drills such as sniper shooting lessons, carrying men on their backs, and carrying stones uphill. These unusual training methods have sparked curiosity and surprise among fans, with many expressing their astonishment on social media.
The training comes amidst a turbulent period for Pakistan cricket, with Shaheen Afridi recently removed as T20 captain after just one series. The decision has drawn criticism from some former cricketers, highlighting the ongoing challenges faced by the team.
Despite the controversy, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has reinstated Babar Azam as the captain for the T20 format, citing strategic reasons aimed at ensuring the players’ well-being and performance.
The team’s training regime, though unconventional, reflects their commitment to prepare for the upcoming T20 World Cup, with fans eagerly anticipating their performance on the global stage.
