Baber says they’ll look at it as a positive as well and they will look ahead to their plan and see what’s needed to be done.

The national coach adds he will push the players to their limits.

Baber also says it’s important that the players have the self-management and self-awareness ensuring they will put their hands up potentially to be an Olympian.
