http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Misbah-ul-Haq-c1972 all praise for his bowlers – Cricket News
Pakistan’s captain, Misbah-ul-Haq, is over the moon after winning the One Day International (ODI) series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760 and was all praise for his bowling line-up, which did not allow the home team’s batsmen to play freely.
The Green Shirts are not considered to be a good chasing team; however, Misbah took a brave decision and opted to bowl first in the final fixture at St. Lucia. It turned out to be the right decision as Pakistan restricted the Caribbean men to 242 runs in their allotted 50 overs.
Thanks to brilliant half-centuries by Misbah and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755’s batting together, scoring four half-centuries.
While expressing his views after the match, the cricketer from Mianwali admitted that it was a flat pitch, which is the reason why chasing the total was not much of a difficulty. The middle-order batsman was all praise for his bowling attack, which did brilliantly throughout the five-match series.
He said, "I knew this pitch was really good to bat on, and if we kept batting until the end, nothing was impossible. The bowling has obviously been our strength. Everybody bowled really well, which was the key in this win.”
The skipper further added that the Green Shirts went in the final ODI with a positive frame of mind, which is the reason why they were not afraid to bowl first.
“Always tough to bowl first, especially in pressure games like this, but everybody was really positive that we were going to chase well," concluded Misbah.
The two teams are now geared up for the two-match T20 series, which is going to start from Saturday at St. Vincent. Misbah will not be a part of Pakistan’s T20 team and it remains to be seen how the youngsters cope with the pressure of international cricket without their most seasoned batsman. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/DJG-Sammy-c1382 will take over the leadership of their respective teams in the T20 series.
