Pakistan Test captain Misbahul Haq recently enjoyed some quality time with his family in Oslo, Norway.

Misbah's wife, Uzma Khan, took to Twitter to post pictures of their day out.

The Test captain, who retired from ODI cricket after the 2015 World Cup is currently in Norway participating in charity matches. However, it looks like his schedule is not too tightly packed as he made time to explore Norway with his family as well.

Misbah was recently ranked as number one test cricket captain by a British newspaper, The Telegraph. The paper wrote that under Misbah's unflappable, cerebral leadership, Pakistan have beaten Australia and England, won in Sri Lanka and ascended to number three in the world, and all without being able to play at home.

Although popular in the international cricketing fraternity, Misbah is one of those players who has found it really hard to gain popularity at home. However, over the years Misbah has seemed impervious to some of the unwarranted criticism fired at him from the national crowd and continued playing with his characteristic silent determination.

The 41-year-old has revealed that he would like to end his career with a series against traditional rivals India. Although such a series seems improbable at the moment as confirmed by Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Shaharyar Khan, if it means the continual of Misbah as Test captain, his fans would be delighted.
