Mohammed Amir says Pakistan players scared of asking for break, communication gap exists with management

Firstpost  

Pakistan pacer Mohammed Amir says players of the national team are scared of asking for a break even when they feel exhausted as they apprehend being dropped from the side altogether due to a “communication gap” with the team management. Amir, who has retired from Test cricket to prolong his career in the shorter formats, said communication and understanding need to be better between players and the management. “The problem is that if a player musters the courage to say in Pakistan cricket that he wants rest, he is dropped, so players are now scared about speaking about it with the management,” he told the ‘News One’ channel. “…people lack common sense to understand the situation I was in after returning to cricket from the five-year ban,” he added referring to the spot-fixing ban that he served.
