AUCKLAND: Upbeat after a 29-run victory over South Africa in a rain-curtailed WC game, Pakistan skipper Misbah-ul-Haq on Saturday said his side would take the winning confidence through to their last pool match against Ireland on March 15.
“Of course, beating SA, who are really playing good cricket, everybody knows that they are a wonderful side so after that everybody believes that, all the players and team, they are confident. I think the next game is going to be really important for us,” said Haq, who scored 56 runs at the Eden Park.
“We can take a lot of confidence from this, but we need to be focussed because that’s a must-win game for us and I think the momentum goes with that in the knockout stage. So anything could happen. When you are going with four strike bowlers, the plan is very simple and the opposition also knows that we are going for wickets and we are going for the kill,” Misbah added. (IANS)
