LAHORE: Former Pakistan chief selector Inzamam-ul-Haq on Saturday said that Pakistan players would face difficulties in adjusting to New Zealand conditions which are not that easy.
Talking to media in Lahore, the former cricketer said, “green shirts will have to work hard to adapt to the wicket conditions”.
The 50-year-old added that winning in New Zealand is ‘not so easy’ for Pakistan.
While Inzamam appreciated the addition of new players in the cricket squad, he said experience is what will eventually lead the team to victory.
“In New Zealand experience comes in handy. It will be difficult to win if we play young players,” he said.
The former batsman was disappointed with players violating the COVID-19 protocols and said that should have been avoided. However, he sympathized with players saying it was difficult for them to stay in quarantine.
Inzamam also hinted at Pakistan Cricket Board’s (PCB) decision of not investing in a chartered flight being a possible reason for positive Covid-19 tests in the squad.
“Travelling on a commercial flight could also be a reason why multiple players came out corona positive,” he said.
