Dial Dhoni: Mohammad Yousuf advises struggling Pakistan captain Sarfraz Ahmed

Former Pakistan captain Mohammad Yousuf has advised national team captain and wicketkeeper Sarfraz Ahmed to consult Mahendra Singh Dhoni to get over his fitness and form issues.

"I think Sarfaraz needs to work on his fitness and skills a lot more. Unless he is in top form, he can't expect the team to respond," Yousuf said.

"Dhoni led India admirably in all three formats for a long time and performed not only as captain but also as a batsman and wicketkeeper. Sarfraz can learn a lot from him," he added.

Butt, Asif Among Pakistan Players Who Took Part in Dubious Event in UAE

Pakistan's tainted former captain, Salman Butt, and some other Pakistani players are again in the spotlight after the International Cricket Councils Anti-Corruption unit confirmed it was investigating the Ajman All Stars T20 League held recently.

Butt and Asif who have served five-year bans for spot-fixing between 2010 and 2016 were among a couple of Pakistani players who took part in the private tournament which apparently has caught the attention of the ICC after visuals of some matches were aired which contained some questionable dismissals and behaviour on part of the players.

Former Pakistan players, Hasan Raza, Muhammad Khalil and some others are said to have taken part in the private league which has been disowned and termed as illegal by the Emirates cricket board and Ajman Cricket Council.

Ramiz Raja Wants Someone Like Rahul Dravid to Guide Youngsters in Pakistan

After Pakistan’s 203-run defeat against India in the semifinal of ICC U19 Cricket World Cup, Ramiz Raja has said that Pakistan needs someone like Rahul Dravid to develop the young players. Ramiz praised Dravid’s efforts in mentoring the young Indian cricketers.

Ramiz, who was pretty shocked at the margin of loss, said he was impressed with the temperament shown by the Indian U19 players. “I am impressed with the temperament shown by some of the Indian players. They have a fine find in Shubman Gill and others. Rahul Dravid deserves a lot of credit for preparing and grooming them so effectively,” he said.
