Pakistan Coach Waqar Younis eyes series win over New Zealand
Pakistani Coach, Waqar Younis, has said that Pakistan would aim for a series win against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/New-Zealand-c754 in the second Test Match.
Pakistan is currently touring New Zealand and this tour can bring some good fortune for the demoralized http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 side.
Pakistan were defeated in the Twenty20 series by New Zealand and went into the Test series under a cloud of doubt.
But the first Test in Christchurch proved to be a lucky one for the Pakistanis as they managed to win by a commanding 10 wicket margin.
Pakistan played quite impressively in the first Test match and did all the right things in each of their departments. The players fired at the right time for the Pakistanis as they managed to deliver an all round and professional performance in the match.
Waqar Younis is one person, who realises the importance of a series win for the Pakistanis and knows Pakistan need to win a series before the World Cup.
Waqar Younis was of the view that Pakistan has not been playing bad cricket in recent times and labelled the controversies as the real reason for the bad performance of the team. The spot fixing controversy has made a huge impact on Pakistani Cricket and
it has affected the performance of the players to a great extent.
The controversy has acted like a skeleton in the closet of the Pakistan Cricket Board and they have certainly tried to lower the effect of this demon on the performance of the Pakistani players.
Waqar Younis further explained that it is quite hard for the players to keep on performing under the spot light of spot fixing controversies. But he also gave a lot of credit to Pakistani players that they have stuck to their tasks and have managed to get
up every morning with a positive attitude.
Pakistani players are asked questions regarding this controversy in every series and it does affect the mind of an individual if he is constantly being asked about some unpleasant things related to his team.
But, still Pakistani players have managed to come on top of these controversies and have delivered some good performances in recent times.
Even before the New Zealand Test series, Pakistani players did show a lot of fighting spirit in the Test series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757 and managed to give a decent fight to the Proteas in the series.
