NEW DELHI: Having undergone military drills at an army camp to

Pakistan players
found unique ways for their practice sessions in order to get match ready.
However, their innovative moves have not been well-received by fans, who have time and again expressed their displeasure on social media.
The team has faced criticism for their unorthodox training techniques, with many questioning the effectiveness of such methods in improving their on-field performance.
In a video that has now gone viral on social media, Pakistan players were seen doing

on mattresses. The fans found it amusing to hilariously troll the players for their unprecedented actions, which tickled their funny bones.
Pakistan had a forgettable campaign at the recently-concluded
T20 World Cup
where they suffered a first-round exit. Placed in Group A, Pakistan endured back-to-back defeats against the co-hosts USA and then to their arch-rival, India.
They bounced back with two wins on the trot against Canada and Ireland, but it was not enough to turn their woeful campaign around and secure a spot in the Super 8 as they ended in the third place in their group during the league stage, missing out on net-run-rate.
Pakistan next play a two-Test series against Bangladesh followed by three Tests against England. It is unlikely that senior players like Babar and Rizwan would want to take a break from these assignments.
