"We might try a couple of things because I believe everybody should get a chance," he said.
Following their emphatic victory in the opening T20I, the Men in Green again kept their opponents at bay with a nail-biting Super-Over win in the second game, which also sealed a first series triumph for Hafeez since he took on the T20 captaincy in June
