No more unhealthy food, says Misbah to team

KARACHI: Head coach Misbah-ul-Haq has told players that unhealthy food would be no longer served on the menu.

The decision was taken in order to make the players maintain their fitness.

A spokesperson for the catering company which prepares meals for the players was quoted as saying, “No more unhealthy or oil-rich red meat meals or sweet dishes for the players now.”

The spokesperson said that Misbah-ul-Haq has only included barbecue items, pasta, and fruits in the diet plan.
