In Karachi, we are searching for a result in support of ourselves - Imam ul Haq

While Steve Smith called the contribute the initial Test as 'dead', Australia skipper recognized that Pakistan had put forth attempts to invalidate their speed bowling assault. As players made happy on the track Australia burned through 239 overs on the field before the ICC evaluated the track as sub optimal.

An aggregate of 14 wickets fell in the Test with Australia having the option to get only four. Pakistan opener Imam ul Haq felt that had the full Test occurred - and on the off chance that time wasn't lost to wet outfield - the outcome might have been unique. "A draw is something no one needs to see," he began. "Clearly when it's a five-day Test everybody expects an outcome. Be that as it may, when we go to Australian circumstances, they don't make pitches counseling us however make it as per their will so I figure we should see our solidarity and should satisfy our solidarity.

"However, in Karachi, we are searching for an outcome in support of ourselves. I think the Rawalpindi Test was played well as we figured out how to get every one of the 10 wickets. Sadly, 70 overs were not worked out because of terrible light and downpour however had those overs been bowled the outcome might have been different on the grounds that we expected to make them bat once more."

Imam turned into the 10th Pakistan hitter to score a century in the two innings of a Test and was key in guaranteeing Pakistan had the advantage all through the Test. In the primary innings, he was associated with a century organization with individual opener Abdullah Shafique and a twofold century organization with Azhar Ali. In the subsequent innings, he made an unbeaten 252 with Shafique to guarantee Australia were made to work significantly further.

Imam, while attacking his faultfinders, said he's not annoyed by the analysis that is aimed at him. "No matter what my settled or disrupted position in the group or even regardless of whether I am performing, I will continuously be reprimanded," he called attention to. "It's been almost five years and 60 games I have played such a long ways for Pakistan but then I face analysis however I am not miserable in light of the fact that that is exceptionally ordinary to me.

"My responsibility is to score runs and the nature of innings ought to be decided based on my purpose. For my purposes, my skipper, my mentor and the research organization are the significant ones and what they are anticipating from me and how they rate my innings. It isn't exactly significant what individuals say from outside and what insight is made about me that doesn't make any difference whatsoever and I couldn't care less about it. Everybody is qualified for their perspective and I regard that any judgment coming from individuals in the changing area is the thing is significant for me.

"I didn't advise the caretaker to make a pitch as indicated by me, nor is he my family member. It was no different for Australia, yet we got their 10 wickets and not a single one of them figured out how to score 100. I didn't request the pitch with the goal that I can score 100 in every innings. The Karachi pitch will be equivalent to it has been in top of the line cricket and I will not be playing at it interestingly. And yet anything that Test I had played before this I played outside in South Africa, Ireland and England in away Tests. So anything that the pitch will be - possibly it's green, yellow or brown - my responsibility is to play cricket and I will play and continue to put stock in my training."

Australia are on top of the focuses table in the World Test Championship 2021-23 and are trailed by Pakistan. The two groups will currently meet for the second Test from March 12 in Karachi.
