Pakistan can finish at respectable place in WC: Miandad

11 Jan, 2011

Director General Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and former captain Javed Miandad believes that Pakistan's current players were talented enough and can finish at some respectable place in the upcoming World Cup provided they bring back the 1992 attitude.
"We have some very talented boys in our side, who can raise the nation to glory. But what they need at present is aggression, push, motivation and unconventional strategy of 1992," he told APP on Monday.
The former cricketer was of the opinion that Pakistan could perform well in the mega event even without fast bowlers Mohammad Amir and Mohammad Asif. "I think Pakistan's other players are also very talented and can be a threat to any side provided they grab the opportunities and play to their full potential," he said. Miandad said he was happy that his work with the boys during the camp for New Zealand tour yielded results and Pakistan outplayed that country in the first Test at Hamilton.
