"I have been given permission by Sarfaraz to talk to the youngsters on the field" : Mohammad Hafeez
Mohammad Hafeez speaking after winning the Man of the Match award in the first T20I against NZ:
"First of all I am happy that I helped in Pakistan's win today and my contribution as an allrounder was a good one"
"This was missing from before so I am very happy to do that job for Pakistan"
"There are a lot of problems [with new action] as all your momentum and body muscles have to be used in a different way"
"I am very happy and want to thank everyone who helped me through this"
"Even now, I do a lot of analysis about my action"
"What I am doing is trying to do is to make sure whatever situation I get, I help my team gain the momentum"
"This way we can get to a par score, although today it seems that we were 10-15 runs short but our bowlers did well to restrict the opposition and that is more important"
"All the people I have shared the dressing room with have always wanted to win the match for Pakistan"
"This team is young, they have energy and they love to take the pressure and handle it amongst themselves"
"They dont run away from pressure, they want pressure on themselves and want to perform in such conditions"
"I think the team still needs to improve and the more close encounters these guys win, the more confidence they will gain to play for Pakistan and win games too"
"I have always wanted to play for Pakistan and contribute as much as I can"
"In this comeback for Pakistan, my goal is to play each game as it was my last game for Pakistan"
"and to try and perform as best as I can in any kind of situation"
"I am happy that all this is working for the Pakistan team"
"We have a young team and the idea is to give them a message of conviction"
"Whenever, I am standing next to a youngster, I always tell him that do what your heart tells you do to"
"I have been given permission by Sarfaraz to talk to the youngsters on the field"
"For example, when I was talking to Shaheen Shah Afridi, I was saying to him, do what your heart is saying [ do what you are convinced is the right thing to do]"
"The idea is to share experience and the all the guys are responding well"
"NZ are a great side and they always bring something new to you"
"New Zealand took some excellent catches"
"We are on a winning streak and that will help us as that kind of momentum is useful"
"It will be a tough series for us as we need to work very hard to hit all the areas to win against New Zealand"
"When I was batting, my plan alongside Asif Ali was that we would get 160+ today"
"As 160+ looked like par for the pitch today"
"But with contributions towards the end we got to near-to-par score and then the credit goes to the fast-bowlers in the way they bowled so well, Hasan Ali and Shaheen Shah bowled well and Faheem also started well"
"This pitch was different and the ball did not grip that much for spinners but when we go to Dubai, there will definitely be more help there [for spinners"
"As a team and a bowling unit our confidence is very high"
"I am really happy that my all round performance has helped Pakistan"
