Lol read this funny news.
2 boards doing their negotiation on future bilateral tour, announcing the schedule etc but on the other hand Skipper (Tim Paine) giving interview and saying that some players might have some concern over this tour. Poster boy already started working on his list of excuses lol.
https://www.smh.com.au/sport/cricket/paine-may-captain-pakistan-tour-but-admits-to-player-concerns-20211109-p597br.htmlPaine admitted some Australian players may be uncomfortable with touring Pakistan given the security situation in the region.
The schedule for what would be Australia’s first tour of Pakistan since 1998 was released on Monday night, but it is far from certain if the matches will be played.
No one really cares about Tim Paine. His performance as a captain is below par, and his performance as a batsmen is outright pathetic. Don't want to comment on his wicket keeping skills. He will be 37 at the time of the tour, and I think that the Australian board should seriously consider options to replace him. If Paine and other senior players pull out of the Pakistan tour, then it will give an idea opportunity for the board to include some of the promising youngsters. Quite a few are garnering attention during the ongoing Sheffield Shield season.
