In the world of cricket, there is constantly room for discussion and analysis, so when an experienced broadcaster like Simon Doull offers his opinions, it gets attention.
The Quetta Gladiators have recently come under fire from Doull for both their poor play in the current PSL and the addition of Mohammad Hafeez and Umar Akmal to the squad.
Despite their youth, Akmal and Hafeez were included in the playing XI, according to Doull, which clearly shows that they lacked vision and strategy when making the draught.
One of the PSL’s most well-known teams, the Gladiators, led by Sarfaraz Ahmed, struggled against Multan Sultans in their opening match and lost by nine wickets.
Fans and experts alike have been perplexed by the team’s poor performance and inability to work together, with many attributing it to an absence of consistency.
Doull continued, saying that even though Akmal and Hafeez were both seasoned players in Pakistani cricket, they were the wrong fit for a group that was trying to develop for the future.
Instead of depending on senior players, he claimed, the team should have prioritized selecting talented youngsters who could develop with the team.
