Who Misbah-ul-Haq Is Not Happy With And Why?
Misbah according to media reports is not amused with captain Sarfraz Ahmed, Harris Sohail, Wahab Riaz and Imad Wasim because allegedly, they shy away from putting in the hard yards during practice sessions.
Moreover, Sarfraz’s lack of courage while leading the side particularly, when the chips are down is another source of concern for the 45 year old.

So, Why Are The Players Not Cooperating?
Sarfraz is seriously out-of-form and hence, his confidence level is visibly down. Therefore, a lack of courage while leading the team and shying away from responsibility when the going gets tough is only but natural.
Nevertheless, Misbah and Waqar Younis have been blamed by former cricketers for over-working the boys during net sessions that results in them entering an important game tired. Hence, this seems to be a possible reason why some of the senior players are not cooperating with the support staff and why they are reluctant to adhere to Misbah and company’s advice.
