Player of the Match
Arafat Minhas | Pakistan
Said the same in the mid-innings that yes the pressure is there. I took the confidence from PSL performances. Tried to enjoy the environment. Basics are always important no matter the conditions.
Our camp in Lahore before the series helped us. It was his dream as well that I play for Pakistan (his father), he was watching me today and I’m sure he would’ve been happy.
