He knows his responsibility and he is very important for the team. We are expecting from the fast bowlers because they have performed well in the past. We need a strong bench- Shahid Afridi He said that Babar Azam, Shaheen etc. have performed so well that we expect similar performance from them in every match. Consistency is challenging in cricket. I have always said that unless our bench is strong, we will not be able to take the best decisions. The former cricketer continued his point by saying that the A team should be as strong as the premier team. So that if Shaheen or Babar or Rizwan is not there then we will not have the excuse of players being unavailable. When our bench is strong, we will have no excuse.
