Pakistan defeated Scotland by 72 runs in their fifth match in a row. “We have faith in each other’s abilities.” “We are confident about each other’s ability. We are playing as a unit and hence playing consistent cricket. I and Malik wanted to bat first. We couldn’t play well in the powerplay. Hafeez and Malik both performed admirably.
He made good use of his previous experience and played well at the conclusion. We had faith in ourselves. We’d like to keep going in the same direction. One of the best stadiums in the world is in Dubai.
