Need to forget the past says Misbah – Cricket News Update
As the Men In Green gear up to take http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Misbah-ul-Haq-c1972 has stated that both team need to forget the past and indulge in promoting good, fair cricket.
With the highly anticipated clash set to take place in a week’s time, Misbah talked at the media conference as his team arrived to play in a warm up game in Dubai against England XI before taking on the no 1 ranked Test side in the world.
The concerns regarding their battle with the Poms have been blighted by the events which took place in mid of 2010, where three Men In Green players were handed lengthy bans, along with jail terms following their involvement in spot fixing.
Since then, the English side has gone from strength to strength in cementing themselves as the pinnacle team in the longer version of the game. Their opponents, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 haven’t fared badly, winning three successive series under the leadership of Misbah.
With both teams on a roll, the Pakistani skipper praised his team for the improvement they have shown since the infamous act, while adding that his team plays good, fair cricket.
"I think both teams know we just have to forget the past," he said. "Our area of concern is to play good cricket, fair cricket - and that's what we can do. In a year and a half, our performances show that - the way we are behaving on the field, the way we
are conducting ourselves.
"Credit goes to the team and all the players after a difficult time - everybody just stuck to the task, gathered their thoughts and just wanted to prove to the world that we were good players and a good team. Our target is just to play cricket in the true
spirit. We want good relations, and to play really good and hard cricket."
The tourists have already started their campaign with a win in their first practice game against the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 combined XI, while Pakistan will be hoping to do the same when they take on an England XI today at Dubai.
