The T20 skipper said, "You will see that on this tour we will be very positive. I will try to maintain a good environment for them in the dressing room, and as a captain I am trying to give my players full confidence. Khalid [Latif],
Ahmed [Shahzad] and Shoaib [Malik] have already played for Pakistan."
While talking to the reporters, Hafeez added that the team combination will be decided in every fixture taking into account the pitch, weather and opposition. The cricketer from Sargodha believes in ‘horses for courses’ instead of
