Pakistan have momentum after England win: Hafeez
TAUNTON: Experienced all-around player Mohammad Hafeez has urged his team to bring their confidence in winning the England team to the next World Cup champions in Australia.
The 38-year-old player is the savior of the Nottingham team that defeated England in 14 games. He rode his luck and scored 84 on 62 in the game.
This helped the Pakistani team to play a challenging victory with a total of 348 wins and 8 losses, and they won an confidence-enhancing victory after they failed in the seven small gates of the West Indies.
"I think all 10 teams (in the World Cup) can beat," Hafez told AFP on Sunday. "If you look at England, they are playing cricket and people think it's hard to beat them." Hafiz said in a speech before the 36 losses in Oval on Sunday in Australia added: "But all teams are if you Speaking of our next opponent [Australia], they also played very good cricket, but they can also be defeated."
The Pakistani team faced the title in Taunton on Wednesday and the recent record against Australia was frustrating - they only won one of the last 14 ODIs between teams before October 2014.
Australia - They won four of the last five World Cups - in March completed a Pakistani paint against the UAE 5-0, despite Pakistan's seven top players.
"Yes, we don't have a good record for Australia because they played tough cricket, but every day is a new day," Hafez said. "This is the World Cup. We are now gaining momentum after winning the England team."
Pakistan suffered continuous rains in Bristol on Friday, which resulted in no results in the match against Sri Lanka and both teams scored points.
"Yes, this is frustrating, but you can't do much about the weather. Now we move on. But I believe that when we play again, we will play against us against England," Hafez promised.
Hafez said that the Pakistani team made a remarkable change in the first two games - they were defeated by Nottingham's West Indies team with a negligible score of 105 - they admitted to making mistakes.
“I think we realize that we are playing very badly, we trust each other and persuade us to win and think positively to help achieve change,” said Hafez, a veteran with 212 ODIs.
They defeated the England team and defeated them 4-0 shortly before the start of the World Cup, ending the Pakistani team that lost 11 consecutive games since losing the fifth and final ODI against South Africa in January.
"Yes, we have been losing, but we are playing good cricket," Hafez explained. "The best result of the England team's victory is that everyone has contributed.
"Even if he is Hassan Ali, he didn't get a ticket gate, but his last three passes well and let us go back to the game," said Hafez in the mid-speed, who trailed 0-6 by 0-6. 66. "When you play like this, you will gain confidence and motivation."
