KARACHI: Pakistan’s bowling coach Waqar Younis has praised his team’s bowling attack despite defeat in the first Test against West Indies.
The home side won the match by one wicket in Jamaica after a thrilling finish, with three dropped catches contributing to Pakistan’s failure to wrap up the tail.
“When two teams play, one has to lose and unfortunately that was us. When you drop catches at tense moments of the match, it’s going to hurt you and that’s what happened,” said Waqar.
“Despite defending a small target, our bowlers bowled exceedingly well and kept on taking regular wickets. Hats off to them and I feel very proud with the way our bowlers bowled,” he added.
Waqar also lauded Babar Azam’s captaincy during a tough Test match.
“I think he [Babar Azam] led the side really well. It is not easy for a young captain when you are in such kind of Test matches. I think he did a wonderful job but unfortunately couldn’t finish the game,” he concluded.
The second and final Test is also behind closed doors at Sabina Park, Kingston starting on Friday.
