Pakistan’s right-arm fast bowler Hasan Ali has broken his silence on former Team Director Mohammad Hafeez’s claims that players were sleeping in the dressing room during Test matches against Australia. In an interview, Hasan Ali rejected Hafeez’s allegations, stating that the previous management allowed players, especially fast bowlers, to take short naps for recovery purposes.
Hasan Ali clarified that players were not sleeping during matches but were allowed to rest if needed. He emphasized that the management had set rules for recovery, and players followed them. Hafeez’s claims sparked controversy, with many questioning the discipline of the national team.
Hafeez, who served as Pakistan men’s cricket team Director and interim head coach, criticized the team’s discipline after their early exit from the T20 World Cup 2024. He claimed that players were sleeping in the dressing room during Test matches, which Hasan Ali has now denied.
