Has Paul Allott considered a career as a motivational speaker?
Haseeb even
Wouldn’t want Allott writing me a reference![]()
Aye, young kid gone had the highs of opening for England, looked nailed on to be Cook's successor but it's all gone wrong. Clearly not through a lack of application and determination. I guess he's probably suffering massively with a lack of self confidence, questioning himself constantly about what he can do to find a way back to some form and there's Allott being quoted in the press about how his contracts up in 6 months. Kid probably needs and arm round him and someone to get into his head it'll work out ok. Having a scrambled brain panicking about losing your career isn't a great mindset for going out to bat.
Allott comes across as an arsehole.
Easy to blame Allott but Hameed has to score runs, any kind of runs

Don't disagree the he has to score runs, but I'd argue its Allotts job to ensure Hameed has the best chance of doing that. I'm not sure some of the stuff he's said in that article is much of a help really. Different matter is the kid was a toerag and clearly didn't give a shit, but its obvious that's not the case.
We’re not blaming Allott for Hameed’s lack of form, we’re simply astounded at the complete lack of decency from Allott in the interview.
Aye, think those things, but to say them in the press under the circumstances......? Poor form.
It's not pleasant seeing players go through a downturn that Hameed has done … I suspect those that do rarely come out of it …. so it was great to see that he'd done that today. Hopefully better times ahead for him.Double Hundred today
You just know that prick Allott is going to claim it was all a motivational trick if Haseeb finds form.
You are being way unfair on him
It clearly was, he has given him loads of support in the media the last 2 years
