KARACHI: Head coach of Peshawar Zalmi and former Pakistan Test captain Misbah-ul-Haq has said that the pitches in Karachi are slower than those in Lahore, making it difficult for batters to settle at the crease.

He also praised Iftikhar Ahmed as an experienced bowler and said Pakistan should benefit from his services. Speaking to the media after the match, Misbah-ul-Haq said that Babar Azam is striving to regain his lost form and is trying to return to his natural game. He added that Peshawar Zalmi are gradually moving towards success and he is generally satisfied with the team’s overall performance.
