Geared up to perform well in the upcoming http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Younis-Khan-c98325.
Younis, who is considered to the most reliable batsman in the country these days, has failed to make an impression in the shorter formats of the game. As a result, the right-handed batsman has been dropped from the squad for the mega
event, which is going to be played next month.
Shafiq, who performed brilliantly in the Test series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757, is expected to play an important role for the Green Shirts in Younis and will get a proper opportunity to establish himself in the 50-overs format.
Since making his debut in 2010, the batsman from Karachi has been a permanent member of the national squad and has proved himself to be a reliable batsman, especially in Test cricket.
While talking to media during the preparatory camp in Abbottabad, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Shafiq-c89281 expressed his keenness to deliver the goods for the country and said that the whole team is geared up to win the Champions Trophy.
“Yes, definitely, there is more responsibility on me without the presence of Younus http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755,” said the middle-order
batsman. “My individual target is to perform is such a way that the teams benefits from it.”
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Javed-Miandad-c66580, the former Pakistan captain, has also attended the camp to help Pakistani batsmen. Shafiq revealed that the legend’s tips have been extremely helpful, which will help the national team perform better in England.
He added, “He is a legend of Pakistan and whatever tips he gives us specially benefit us. He has his own experience of playing in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 so when he comes and shares that with us we definitely benefit from it.”
Asad has looked in sublime form in domestic cricket recently and the sporting analysts are expecting him to live up to the expectations in the all-important tournament.
