Younis Khan expresses full confidence that the team management selected the most suitable players for the ICC Men’s Champions Trophy 2025 despite criticism from former cricketers.
All top cricket talent in Pakistan makes up the team that will compete in the Champions Trophy. Mental resilience serves as the principle factor that determines victory according to Younis.
He put focus on the combined support for the players that the team management selected. The selected team obtains full backing because its members were selected based solely on their performance achievement criteria. Urgent criticism following unnecessary squad changes creates surplus stress for the players according to him.
