“Shaheen definitely needs rest but he feels insecure about losing his place. The team management needs to make sure he doesn’t bowl a lot during the net sessions,” said Junaid.

“England rotated both James Anderson and Stuart Broad during recent Test series against India. Both bowlers are rested even after taking five or six wickets in the previous match because they are secure of their place in the team,” noted Junaid

He also expressed hope that the bilateral series between Pakistan and India will resume soon because young players can learn a lot about handling pressure by playing against India.
