"Haris Sohail wasnt ready at that point; if he was, it would have been an easy single" : Azhar Ali
Question asked was : What was said in the dressing room when you met Haris Sohail (after the run out)
"These things happen in cricket and in the heat of the moment you are saddened a bit"
"The person who makes the mistake feels it more, and if he is still batting (Haris Sohail) then he should be supported"
"It was my call as it was in front (ball was played in front); this is the 'pshche' of running between the wickets that whoever is looking in front (at the ball) makes the call"
"I believe he wasn't paying attention so could not respond to the call"
"If we give this issue too much attention then it trust begins to lag; these things can happen sometimes in running between wickets and we should move on"
"We should learn from these mistakes; what happened in Abu Dhabi against Australia is not acceptable but the other types of misunderstandings (referring to Babar Azam) can happen in cricket"
"Run out in Test cricket is like a crime and has a big cost so we need to realize this"
"This is Test cricket, even one bad ball can get you out"
"Due to nature of pitches, runs are difficult to get as is so running between the wickets is very important"
"Haris Sohail wasn't ready at that point; if he was, it would have been an easy single"
"I believe we are short by 20-25 runs at the end of today"
"The pitch wasn't as fluent but there was spin and the fast-bowlers bowled straight so it was difficult to score in such conditions"
"This is why they had a fast-bowlers from one end so as to not give runs; There was turn for the spinners but you could still improvise and you could get the odd bad ball also"
"We could have pushed on against the spinners but I still feel we are sitting in a decent position"
"With 4 wickets down, if we can get another good partnership going then a score of 300 is a good first innings score, any more will be a bonus"
"There is no guarantee that you will score runs each time on this surface as you have to apply yourself everytime"
"When we played against Australia here recently, the ball was not turning like that on Day 1"
"Ball is turning not only on the rough but other parts also so if this is how the pitch plays then it would be good to put in a good score"
"Once we put the numbers on the scoreboard, then we have an advantage as we have good spinners like Yasir Shah and Bilal Asif"
"Ajaz bowled really well today; He's had a very good start to his career"
