Pakistan pacer Ihsanullah is breaking new ground with innovative fitness exercises to reignite his international cricket career. He made his international debut in 2023 but couldn’t get regular chances and went on to represent Pakistan in only five international matches.

Ihsanullah last played his international game against New Zealand in April 2023, and since then he has been struggling to cut the Pakistan cricket team, owing to fitness concerns.

Ihsanullah pushes boundaries with innovative workouts in a bid to return to the Pakistan team

Determined to make a strong comeback to the international arena, he has crafted unique workout routines that push the boundaries of traditional training methods.

His dedication to regaining peak fitness has left many in awe, as he continues to surprise the cricketing world with his creativity and discipline. In a viral video on the social media platform X, Ihsanullah can be seen using unique techniques to be fit for international cricket.

However, he hilariously fell on the floor while doing his exercise. His new approach to fitness isn’t just about regaining strength but staying fit, and now his unorthodox training methods are going viral on social media.

Notably, Ihsanullah is known for his raw pace and aggressive bowling, but he failed to impress in his four appearances for Pakistan, taking only six wickets in four T20I matches.

Meanwhile, Pakistani players are currently involved in the Champions One-Day Cup in the lead-up to the upcoming three-match Test series against England at home.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has already announced the squad for the home Test series against England, and the hosts are looking forward to returning to form after an embarrassing series loss to Bangladesh at home.

Danish Kaneria blasts compare Pakistan team to 'Mohalla Side'

Recently, former Pakistan spinner Danish Kaneria has drawn a sharp comparison between the Pakistan cricket team and a 'Mohalla Team'. He blamed the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for the decline of the game in the country. The PCB has been under heavy scrutiny, especially after Pakistan’s recent whitewash at the hands of Bangladesh on home soil.

Kaneria didn’t hold back in his criticism, particularly targeting Pakistan Test captain Shan Masood and white-ball captain Babar Azam for their lackluster performances during the two-match Test series against Bangladesh, who recorded their first-ever Test series win on Pakistan soil.

Danish Kaneria was quoted as saying by IANS: “The level of the Pakistan cricket team is so low that even a mohalla team is better than them, and all this is because of the PCB. They are to be blamed for such a below-par show from the national side. The luxuries of the captain's ‘kursi' (chair) and the chairmanship at the PCB spoil minds.”

Kaneria added, “I don't know why Babar Azam was given the leadership responsibility despite Sarfaraz Ahmed's good captaincy. Currently, there is no captain material in the Pakistan team. A captain is someone who takes the pressure on his shoulders and carries the team forward with his performance, which both Babar and Shan Masood have failed to do.”
