Summer camp abroad

So the biggest problem our teaming is facing these days (or like always) is to play swing on sporting pitches. Having said that FTP is already very tight and there is no room for any more series, however I would suggest that Pakistan team should schedule a 2 week boot camp somewhere in Northern England or Scotland, where we need three international level pitches for the practice. It could be a club or county ground that they can lend to us (on rent, incl prep).We will bring our current playing team, as well as the 5 top prospects from first class to groom them on those conditions/pitches. We can also bring consultants like Viv Richards, Javed, Border etc to give tips to get the technique correct against swing. A two week boot camp with best specialists around them will improve things.

What do you think guys?

Re: Summer camp abroad

Won't do much. Just like a two week camp with Jonty Rhodes and a camp with psychologist didn't accomplish anything, this won't help much. Unless they can hold this whenever they have some free time. The easiest and most effective solution is to prepare helpful pitches in Pakistan.

Re: Summer camp abroad

But you need to simulate the conditions abroad. May be they need to create a world class facility in abottabad or somewhere similar and prepare WACA class pitches and have our own masters train not only under 16, 19 and A team. But national team's batsmen as well. Call it conditioning camp if you will.
