Sarfraz Ahmed Press Conference After Lose 1st Test Match Against NZ || Pak vs Nz Test Series 2018
Sarfraz Ahmed Press Conference After Lose 1st Test Match Against NZ || Pak vs Nz Test Series 2018 #1sttest2018 #pakvsnz #nzvspak Sarfraz said reliving Pakistan's collapse in the chase. "The way we started off yesterday made us feel that we will be able to chase down the target. We lost three wickets today, then there was a partnership and then again, we lost wickets. A batsman needs to spend time on this wicket. There has been a trend, of both teams, losing wickets in clumps. We should have chased it down. It is indeed very disappointing. "I think our team was not able to handle the pressure. Babar Azam's run out, when 40 runs were left in the chase, can be termed as the turning point as it initiated the collapse." There were questions about the game plan for the day. Naturally, such a performance does merit such queries. Despite Pakistan becoming a regular in pulling off such collapses, this one stunned everyone. "The message for the batsmen was to continue playing positive cricket like we had the last day," Sarfraz said. "Our dismissals have been very soft because of which are hurting us. This is what we must look at as a batting unit. Our batsmen have taken starts but haven't been able to prolong their innings. Crediting New Zealand for bowling well on the last day, he added: "The behaviour of the Abu Dhabi pitch has changed over the years and now there's a lot of spin on offer here. Credit goes to Ajaz Patel the way he bowled on it." The second of the three-match Test series begins on Saturday in Dubai. And, after such a demoralizing defeat it remains to be seen how Pakistan will bounce back. "Of course, the result is disappointing. We had the match in our control, but we let it go. We will try to forget what has happened and focus on what's next."
