<br><br>completely agree!! youth and senior levels are 2 diff things..80 to 90 percent of those india u16 n u19s lads will become pro in india or abroad while maybe 1 from the u16s perhaps can make a proper career out of it! you guys have a great set up which is improving very quickly so in long term the benefits will be clear.<br><br>i think they should have started training byt now but then again majority of the squad has been playing together whole season and wont be huge issues in terms of coordination, fitness and the rest.<br><br>as far as nepal camp is concerned..their matches are 2weeks earlier than all the other groups!!<br>
@Shah476 100% agree. By the time the players arrive for the u22 camp they will already be fit. At least a 3-week camp is needed.<div><br></div><div>As for Pakistan you guys made the right decision. The Pakistan Premier League does not look like it will get better but at least these kids are getting exposure and sure they might not qualify BUT unlike with India, 90% of the Pakistan U22 will form the future of there senior team.</div>
