Pakistan's top-request player Mohammad Rizwan feels that the Men In Green's bowlers surrendered a larger number of runs than the group anticipated from them in the last association match of the tri-country series against Bangladesh.

The wicketkeeper-player, in any case, lauded his colleague Mohammad Nawaz for speeding up the innings and assisting Pakistan with arriving at the objective.

After discussing with Geo News after Pakistan's seven-wicket win against Bangladesh on Thursday, Rizwan said that playing in New Zealand has furnished Pakistan with a decent open door in front of the world cup to prepare for the mega event.

"Albeit, the outcome could never have gained any effect on our headway in this competition, however every game we play for Pakistan is a significant game for us," he said when inquired as to whether this was viewed as a dead elastic by the group too.

"I feel that we shouldn't have surrendered 170+ runs in the main innings, how our bowling strength is and what we anticipate from them recommend that we yielded a bigger number of runs than what we ought to have been finished," he said.

Discussing Pakistan's methodology, Rizwan said that the group began the run-pursue with an arrangement close by.

"We understood what we needed to do, we went bit by bit and followed the arrangement like we generally had one while pursuing in T20Is, however in the nineteenth over two or three speck balls were precarious at the same time, eventually, we polished it off well,"

"I should say that Nawaz played splendidly, he sped up the innings precisely when we really wanted it and set us in an agreeable position," he said.

The top-order batter said that playing in New Zealand has provided Pakistan with an excellent good opportunity to test itself ahead of the world cup and the team is confident ahead of the final of the tri-nation series.

“Winning the final here would provide us the boos ahead of the world cup, it will allow us to go into the tournament with high confidence,” said Rizwan.

“Playing in New Zealand is always helpful, wickets may not be the same but weather in Australia won’t be much different from what we faced in New Zealand, and playing against a quality side is always a good preparation,”

“We tried out different combinations as well and will try to apply what we have learned from our experience of the tri-series here,” he concluded.
