Waqar Younis has a message for Pakistani cricket fans

Former Pakistan head coach Waqar Younis tweeted on Sunday support for the team which reached England for a four-Test, five-ODI and one-off T20 series.

The 44-year-old’s tweet presented a success formula which required the fans to do three things: ‘believe’, ‘have faith’ and ‘back’ the boys.

Meanwhile, a few started analysing Pakistan’s chances against England.

Waqar resigned from his head coach post after dismal performances in Asia Cup and World T20. He has been succeeded by South African Mickey Arthur whose first assignment with Pakistan will be in England.

“The tour of England isn’t going to be easy for sure, but self-belief of achieving something in testing conditions can do wonders,” Waqar had told The Express Tribune earlier in an interview.

“It would have been a challenging task for me and it would be the same for Arthur. If he wants to speak to me, I’m always available and my phone is always open for his calls. I can help him gain insight into the strengths and weaknesses of the players, their good points and bad, the dealings of the board with the team and team management etc.”
