Australia beat with very much confident way at Gaddafi stadium Lahore by 115 runs, Australian captain Pat Cummins brave decision proved right by himself and his players when raped up Pakistan second inning on 235 in 92.1 overs in the chase of 351 runs target. Pat Cummins who took the brave decision of giving target of 351 runs to Pakistan and at that point some of the cricket pundits was thinking that the decision may be set backed Australia.
Usman Khawaja who declared the man of the series on the basis of his dominating performance at Rawalpindi, Karachi and Lahore supported the decision of his captains with logical reasons.
“We were confident that first three or four wickets are difficult to get but if we got in time and than after 30 or 40 overs, Reverse swing will work perfectly and that’s worked very well” Usman Khawaja answered a question.
We are good in last 30 40 days and the Aussies win and than this is pretty good for us.
The decision of declaration was actually faith in boys and my self.
we have confidence after getting the Aussies and Asian condition are huge for us and bowlers faith specially the quick bowlers did well.
We played positive cricket in through out the test match series and yes! the last session of Lahore test was not good for us and because of that we lost the match and the series.
Pakistan Cricket team is in very good shape and there is no need of any change due to series lost to Australia.
Australian bowlers performed really well and I want to praise them and their efforts.
It’s nothing in the pitch, you pushed to love every test match for possible outcomes and we did it.
hardened wicket I batted on and i was thinking it will not be easy for Pakistan to survive for 351 runs in four session.
