“Look guys, this win was not a result of any individual performance. We gave a complete team performance and we do not have to let go of this. This is just the start, enjoy it, but do not get overexcited after beating India. We need to look ahead and our focus should be to win the T20 World Cup. We will never be relaxed, just look to give your 100 percent. Please, do not get overexcited,” he said.
The Pakistan skipper was also careful to remind his teammates not to make the mistake of relaxing after a big win.
“We have to change our habit of getting overexcites after such games. I can see in each one of you that this habit will change. We will have to do this, no one else will come and do it for us. So, very well done,” he added.
