Babar Azam speaking in a PCB video from New Zealand:
"The [COVID-19 related] protocols here in New Zealand are totally different and opposite to what we had seen in England"
"We are backing each other and making sure we keep on talking to each other"
"We are missing practice a lot but when it does start, all these issues will be put to the side and we will focus only on cricket"
"There is a lot of hunger in our players to get their cricket started; Every other player wants this to happen as they are missing cricket as am I"
"This is not a small squad, we are close to 50 so handling them is a tough job; The senior players have a role to play here; So in the four groups we have, there is a senior player handling issues and leading that group"
"The players are not only talking about cricket but also about other matters such as about their families so all this leads to bonding"
"Representing Pakistan is a matter of honour, wearing the star on your chest makes you feel proud and that feeling of pride takes priority"
"Life is never easy - ups and downs come and you have to face these; Its upto you to see how you tackle such problems and manage them"
"As a professional cricketer, you need to be able to handle and find ways out of difficult situations"
"So this is a difficult time for us and the best thing is that we are talking to each other, we are gelling well with each other and are lifting spirits of each other"
