Srinagar: Pakistan cricket team batter Fakhar Zaman had hailed teammate Azam Khan for showing courage and determination during recently held fitness coaching camp in Kakul.
“What impressed me the most is what Azam Khan has done. We were not expecting him to undergo such tough training, and naturally, his physique is such that we didn’t anticipate him to take up such challenges,” Zaman Khan was quoted as saying.
“Despite that, the way he has pushed himself, even climbing mountains when we were hiking, I mean, we couldn’t believe he would make it to the top. If we all show such courage, it could be very beneficial.”
Fakhar Zaman also spoke about the adjustments the players had to make in the Kakul camp as it took place in Ramadan.
“It was quite tough when I was here back in 2018, but this time, it wasn’t so tough, due to the holy month of Ramadan,” Zaman said.
“The training they conduct here is tough, but since it was Ramadan, they took great care and lightened the workload a bit.
“When your fitness is good, you also get good results, and our aim here was to build team bonding, which worked well. The training sessions, both on and off, have been excellent, and of course, there will be benefits from that,” he added.
Pakistan cricket team participated in the fitness camp in Kakul under the supervision of the Pakistan Army which concluded on April 6.
