LAHORE:
After defeating India in the recent bilateral cricket series, the victorious Pakistan cricket team returned home to a roaring welcome at the Lahore airport on Monday.
Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chief Zaka Ashraf, while speaking to media at the airport, praised the team for its discipline and organised behaviour.
“The team performed like a unit of soldiers on the field,” he said.
Commenting on future bilateral series, Ashraf expressed hope that the Indian team will visit Pakistan soon.
He also added that the Bangladesh team has not said no for the proposed series and availability of dates was the only hindrance.
ODI team captain Misbahul Haq also spoke to the media and appreciated the performance of young players.
The tour - the first by Pakistan since 2007 - included two Twenty20 international matches and a three-match ODI series.
The T20 series was drawn, while Pakistan won the ODI series by defeating India in the first two matches.
