Pakistan finds itself in the middle of a tumultuous World Cup campaign. With its semifinal hopes hanging in the balance, the side has seen a spate of injuries, the resignation of its chief selector and the call-back of team media personnel, all in the middle of a campaign where the hot seat has shown no signs of cooling down.
However, Mickey Arthur, Pakistan’s director of cricket, looked in good spirits ahead of a virtual quarterfinal against New Zealand.
“The one thing that amazes me so much with the Pakistan players is generally how calm they are,” Arthur said here on Friday. “I’m a cat on a hot tin roof but the players take it all in their stride,” he added.
