🚨 A WAKE-UP CALL FOR PAKISTAN ATHLETICS. 🇵🇰 - One disappointing result should never define a champion, but it should expose the cracks in the system. - Arshad Nadeem has already made history and shown the world what Pakistan is capable of. Yet, even the greatest athletes cannot sustain success without elite coaching, modern sports science, proper rehabilitation, performance analysis, and world-class training facilities. - The legacy of an Olympic champion should have sparked a new era for athletics in Pakistan. Instead, progress has been slower than the moment demanded. With LA 2028 drawing closer, Pakistan has a choice: invest in a high-performance system that gives its athletes every opportunity to succeed, or risk wasting one of the greatest sporting talents the country has ever produced. The time for promises has passed. The time to invest in champions is now. 🇵🇰

NASEEM SHAH SPEAKS TO @CricHive_pk 🎙️ - I hope the new system benefits everyone. Proper workload management is crucial for all players, especially fast bowlers. - As a bowling unit, we haven't performed well. Teams are consistently scoring 300+ in ODIs and 200+ in T20Is. The game has evolved, and we need to adapt. - Pace is important, but line and length are equally vital. Workload management must also be adjusted according to the format. - I had enough time to work on my fitness. My injuries happened on the field, and those aren't always within a player's control. - Hunain and Ubaid started playing cricket with me at home. They're working hard, and representing Pakistan alongside them would be a proud moment for me. - I admit my performances haven't been at the level they should be. When you don't perform, nothing else matters even your family wants to see you deliver on the field. - I don't think we have the option of choosing just one format. Whether it's first-class cricket or any other format, I'm ready to play.
