Pakistan Test Captain Misbah-ul-Haq believes Yasir, Azhar, Asad and Sarfaraz are the future of cricket in Pakistan. Misbah ul Haq is impressed by youngster’s performances after first test victory in Sri Lanka.
According to local media reports Misbah said, “It’s good to have youngsters performing, that actually takes away the pressure from us (Younus and himself)”.
Sarfraz Ahmed was man-of-the-match for his gritty 96 in the first innings to go with the three catches and as many stumpings he effected in the match. While Yasir Shah inspired Pakistan to a 10-wicket victory over Sri Lanka in the first Test which concluded in Galle on Sunday, however Misbah still felt Yasir has to work harder to become one of the leading spinners in cricketing world.
“This is the future we are building with these youngsters and these players are coming of age now to take the team ahead. It’s just a start for Yasir, look at the way he has performed to step up and become Pakistan’s main bowler and to contribute in Pakistan’s victories,” he added.
The action has moved to Colombo on Thursday with Sri Lanka bidding to square the three-match series, while Pakistan has a chance to win the series.
