Citing the example of Australian cricketer Marnus Labuschagne, former Test Cricketer Saqlain Mushtaq on Friday advised young players to prepare with the mindset of being match-winners when given the chance to play in the national team.

Saqlain, who played 49 Tests and 169 ODIs for Pakistan between 1995 and 2004, emphasized that youngsters must be fully prepared before a match.

“The under-19 and A teams must be given foreign tours as to prepare the young players for future. When youngsters get a chance [to play] in the national team, they must come fully prepared and groomed,” he said on his YouTube channel.
