Sohail spoke to media at Headingley after the team’s practice session and said that players are aware of the fact that Afghanistan can be a dangerous side.
“Their spinners are very good and we know that. We have seen their videos and have planned accordingly to tackle them,” Sohail told media. The 30-year old batsman scored two consecutive half-centuries to help Pakistan win against South Africa and New Zealand and stay alive in contention.
Many feel that Haris Sohail is a different player from what he was before but Sohail says that there’s nothing changed in his natural style.
“I am playing according to the situation. The situation now is different from what situation was in the past. My role is to play at 4th or 5th position and bat according to requirement,” he said.
“I never play to secure my personal place, my only aim is to play for the team’s benefit. Even when I was dropped earlier, I thought it is in best of the team’s interest,” he added.
When asked, Haris said that he can’t be compared with likes of Misbah ul Haq, Younis Khan or Mohammad Yousuf.
The middle-order batsman further added that the team is going match by match and focused on their game only.
“We are not bothered about ifs and buts and other scenarios, our focus is on our game and we are looking forward to playing against Afghanistan first and then against Bangladesh,” he concluded.
