Asad Shafiq speaking to media
"Our training camp is doing well; our focus is on fitness and we have had sessions in nets as well as on fitness"
"Of course, we will miss the services of Misbah and Younis who have served with distinction for many years but it will be up to Azhar, Sarfaraz and me to take on the responsibility now"
"Yasir Shah is a bowler who can bowl out an opposition regardless of pitch conditions"
"But we do have some quality spinners who can make a difference too"
"You may think that I have not helped in winning matches for Pakistan but in my opinion, I have contributed as much as I can"
"Test match is a format in which the whole team contributes in a win and not just one person"
"Whenever I play, I always try and do my best and try to play a role in Pakistan's victory"
"I have played at 6 in most Test matches and sometimes, you don't get to bat in 2nd innings or sometimes when you come into bat at that position then you are batting with the tail; so chances of scoring more runs comparatively are higher in higher order positions"
"Hopefully, if the management so decides, I will bat at a higher order like 4 or 5 in this series"
"Our batting did not perform to the level we wanted to in the previous series in the UAE (against SL)"
"My performance in Tests is better than shorter formats but if you look at my performances in the domestic tournaments, they have been good"
"Our fast-bowling has the capability to do well with Mohammad Amir and Hasan Ali bowling well - and as we know, the conditions will be favourable for fast-bowling in England"
"Our fast-bowlers can give us an edge but its upto our batting unit to use that advantage"
