Worcestershire: Talisman Pakistan batsman Babar Azam, who will be a vital clog in Pakistan team when they take on England in Test series, has expressed that his team will try to attack England's fragile top-order.
The Lahore-born batsman also said that he is eyeing to score a triple hundred in the upcoming three-Test series against England.
"We performed well on our previous tour of England which is why players are eagerly looking forward to the series," Babar said. "We are currently focused on winning the Test series as that is our first goal on the tour."
"England have the home advantage but our bowlers will give a tough time to their batsmen. We will target their fragile Test top-order. Mohammad Abbas is experienced while Naseem Shah and Shaheen Afridi have a lot of potentials. We have high expectations from our bowlers," he added.
Former speedster Shoaib Akhtar has also urged Pakistan to not settle for a draw but go for victory in their upcoming Test series against England.
Akhtar has advised the Pakistan team to go into the series with a positive frame of mind and belief that they can beat the mighty England team in their own backyard.
"I want to see players' (COVID-19) test negative but want their mindset to be positive. Pakistan needs to play really good cricket," Akhtar said.
"I pray to god that Pakistan won't try to just draw the series there. In the past, we could have won many games in England but I feel the mindset of the batsmen just wasn't there," he added.
