The question of fitness not being up to the mark arises when a batter's running between the wickets is not good or if he isn't able to field for all the overs. "They should see ground fitness. You can confirm this with my coach.

The 32-year-old further added that he is also fine if any of the trainers can provide him with a plan that he can follow in order to improve his fitness.

The right-handed batter suggested that if that happens, he will be able to meet the required fitness standards in just three weeks. Akmal added:
"If I am not meeting the required fitness standards, call me to the Pakistan Cricket Academy and give me an opportunity to work with the trainers. If they don't want to call me to the academy, then at least a trainer could provide me with a plan I would hire a personal trainer for myself then and work accordingly.

Be it club cricket or the Pakistan team, I am always willing to do what the team needs from me." View this post on Instagram Instagram Post
Akmal will have to come up with impactful performances in regular domestic cricket as well as in the PSL in order to impress the selectors. It remains to be seen if the Pakistani think tank will give him another chance, considering that the side have given the nod to younger players over senior campaigners in the recent past.
