As far as reserve wicketkeeper is concerned, we haven’t played a big series commences on 4 to 5 Test matches. So we haven’t picked any one yet. But if we need we have a good backup available in shape of Mohammad Rizwan, 31-year-old said.

Giving his views on Asia cup strategy, Sarfraz said: we would prefer to bat first because it is very difficult to bat under light. The weather would be very hot and humid under light which will help pacers. So we will try to bat first or chose cording to the pitch.
