Younus, who was leading Abbotabad Falcons (which is out of the tournament) in the ongoing National Twenty20 Championship, is not pleased with critical comments made by commentators and media on the performance of some players in the ongoing competition.
Abbotabad Falcons have a number of young players and criticism was directed at some after they lost close matches to Lahore Eagles and Karachi Zebras.
“If they harshly criticize the senior players, it is okay because we are now accustomed to this and adjust accordingly and perform as well. But I would request the media, commentators and experts to be careful while talking about the younger players as they take criticism to heart and lose focus and this upsets their careers,” the Nation quoted Younus, as saying.
“I appreciate that the media and commentators and experts have a big role to play in cricket and in a big event like this but they must give some leeway to the younger players who are still inexperienced and learning to cope with the pressure of top cricket. Criticism dents their confidence completely,” he added.
He further insisted that some of the youngsters might end up playing international cricket and do well.
