Quotes

The guys will be more focused on partnerships. Maybe we should play some games when wickets are falling or chat amongst ourselves to handle the pressure better. This is a personal thing. In international cricket you need to have more focus and motivation.”
Younis Khan is desperate to prevent it from pouring when it rains

“It is always good to aim for a sweep, but you can’t achieve that without playing your best cricket. We have been patchy, and so has Pakistan.”
Kumar Sangakkara is not getting carried away with the 2-0 scoreline
