Quick bucks made through popular T20 leagues are spoiling fast bowlers across the world as they stop working hard after initial success, laments Australian legend Glenn McGrath. “Biggest issue which I find, probably not just in India, probably around the world is how hard they are prepared to work. And if they do get little bit of success playing in IPL or big bash in Australia is that they get to that level and they think they have made it and they stop working hard and they stop training as much,” McGrath said after a coaching clinic here for Under-23 pacers at PCA stadium here on Tuesday.
“Young bowlers have to be prepared to work hard and then work even harder to stay there, there are no easy options or short cuts. Sometimes, I see young cricketers reach a certain standard, all of a sudden they get paid good money and they stop work. I think money should always be secondary. It’s great that cricketers are earning good money. But if money is secondary and it’s all about going out there, performing at their best and keeping themselves in best condition. Then that money will be there all the time. Ultimate goal should always be representing your country.” he said.
