Test cricketer Shaun Masood says that one should not make wrong assumptions about the England team after losing a Test to the West Indies.
In a video conference from Derby, left-arm batsman Shaun Masood said, “Our second phase in Derby has started well after Worcester. Staying in Worcester was good and after 3 months of lockdown, the way we are here.” Facilities are provided. It was nice to play and train.
“Derby also has a bio-secure environment, the corona virus has changed the routine of life, not everything is the same as before, we should be thankful for the sport we love and In the game in which we represent the country and in which we are honored, we are back. Compromise does not mean anything.
Regarding individual performance, Shaun Masood said, “I believe in effort and preparation. If my career did not start well, then the subsequent matches have improved and I am still preparing, which is my job.” I have no control over the outcome.
“England definitely have the advantage that they will have played 3 Test matches before they face Pakistan, but we will also have a chance to take advantage of their mistakes. The Pakistan team is very good in fitness at the moment,” he said. However, despite playing for a long time, the skill work is improving rapidly.
Shaun Masood said that Younis Khan is a great batsman and his arrival has made a big difference in the entire camp. He not only works with the batsmen but also with the bowlers so that the runs scored by him also come in handy. Players are trying to take advantage of Misbah-ul-Haq and Younis Khan.
“I think the inter-squad matches are benefiting more than the side matches against the counties because the leading cricketers of the counties used to be busy and only young players were available in the counties to play international cricket,” said Masood. Competing against young players is better than a team of young cricketers.
Shaun Masood said that the best things are available because of Corona, England West Indies first Test was also done by the best umpires of the elite panel, it must be kept in mind that they are also umpiring after 3 months, bowlers and Batsmen may have difficulty playing after a long break, while umpires may have difficulty.
