Southampton: Pakistan coach Waqar Younis said defeat for his side in the First Test against England was "a tough pill to swallow" on the eve of the second match of the series which starts in Southampton on Thursday.
England reached their victory target of 277 on the fourth day with Pakistan three wickets short - that despite dominating the home side for long periods of the match.
"We cannot match our fast bowling experience with England's, there's no doubt about it. But you have to remember that our bowling attack is the same lineup that won us games against Sri Lanka at home. The series is not over, we will bounce back."
"With Naseem Shah, he is very very talented and he is only 17-18 years of age, so he is still growing, his bones are growing. I don't think he really bowled as well as we expected in the previous game, but he can really bowl well and take the opposition on at times. Because he is young, he is inexperienced and it gets tough at times. He is one for the future, he is going to get stronger and fitter and will be able to bowl longer spells and will cause trouble to batsmen around the world," Waqar said.
Waqar also said that Pakistan would try to "cash in" on the absence of England talisman Ben Stokes - the all-rounder will miss the rest of the series to be with his family in New Zealand.
