Pakistan series will be tough for us says http://www.senore.com/Cricket/JM-Anderson-c1705 – Cricket News Update
England’s fast bowler, James Anderson, has said that the Poms are ready to take up the challenge against team http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755; however, the speedster did admit that the competition against the Men in Green will surely be tough one, since Skipper Misbah-ul-Haq’s
roster already sealed a recent Test series triumph against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758.
In his recent interview with Sky Sports News HD, Anderson said that the Pakistani squad seems to be in a strong form, especially after marking an impressive win against the Lankan http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Lions-c808 in UAE.
The 29-year-old further comprehended that Men in Green have already earned a decent appreciation of the UAE cricket turfs, adding that the English spinners will have to work as a unit, in a bid to deliver an imposing performance against Pakistan.
"I think it will be a really tough series for us," Anderson told Sky Sports News HD. “Hopefully our spinners will help the seam bowlers out a little bit. We've seen them play Sri Lanka there recently and win, so they are obviously getting used to conditions.
It is something we are excited about, we like a challenge and, if we are going to stay at world number one, we have to win in places like that.”
However, not just Anderson, but many cricketing experts also agree with the English quick, stating that the competition will surely come as a nail biting affair, as both the teams have already wrapped up some impressive outings, especially under the Test
format.

against Mahindra Singh Dhoni’s touring squad.
On the other hand, Pakistan too had some impressive Test stints lately, when they defeated the Zimbabwean tourists and then the islanders in their preceding competition.
England and Pakistan will now face each other in UAE, when the two teams begin the tour with a 3-match Test series, kicking off on January 17, 2012 in Dubai, which will be followed up by 4 One Day International matches, and then the eventual 3 Twenty20 outings.
