Dhaka, February 12: Pakistan cricket captain Shahid Afridi today issued a warning to the other World Cup teams, saying that none should underestimate his side as his players were “focussed and united” under his leadership.
“They feel hungry to win a big event and want to play good cricket,” Afridi told reporters here.
Stating that a fruitful tour of New Zealand had bolstered the side’s morale, Afridi said Pakistan have left the spot-fixing scandal behind and are now eager to rebuild the team.
“I think we’re really going through a very tough situation. But I am very happy because we are trying to rebuild the team and keep the morale high,” said Afridi, admitting that Pakistan team was severely jolted by the spot-fixing scandal.
