Mickey Arthur speaking during the 2nd T20I against World XI:
"I thought Babar Azam was outstanding yesterday, it was one of his most fluent innings so far. It's a testament to all the hard work he's putting in, he works really hard on his fitness and on his technique. I hope he goes from strength to strength as he has a massive future."
"Really looking forward to seeing Nawaz and Shinwari bowling. We thought we needed a third spinner since the wicket was assisting spin a bit yesterday."
"Hasan's got a little back injury so we don't want to risk him for the game on Friday with the SL series coming up. Excited to see how Usman Shinwari performs as he's a fantastic bowler."
"Atmosphere here is fantastic, it's great to be at home in Pakistan. It's fantastic for the players to play in front of their families."
"There's been a lot of effort on fitness, Grant Luden has done fantastic work with the boys. He works hard and they've taken to him. It's testament to the boys as well, they've bought into the regime we've put in place. We're fitter, stronger, running harder between the wickets and we can field better which bodes well for us going forward."
"The youngsters have been chipping in and doing their bit which is so good for Pakistan cricket. I hope they keep performing as it solidifies their confidence going forward. It also gives us depth, particularly in our bowling department. If we have injuries, we can replace them with guys who have experience so that's good."
