Hesson Satisfied with Pakistan’s Performance in First Test Against Sri Lanka

RAWALPINDI: Pakistan cricket team head coach Mike Hesson has expressed satisfaction with the team’s performance in the first Test against Sri Lanka.

Speaking at a press conference in Rawalpindi, he said he was pleased with the team’s showing in the first Test and that Pakistan batted well even in poor light.

Hesson said the debutants had performed well. He added that Saqib Khan’s debut could not have been better, and that Ghazi Ghori took some good catches behind the stumps.

The head coach said Test cricket is based on conditions. He noted that Babar Azam’s average in Tests this year is over 50, the highest of any player.

He said that, given the weather, the pink ball should be an option for the future, but it cannot be introduced in the middle of a series.
