We will play every match like final: Gladiators captain Sarfaraz

Abu Dhabi: Quetta Gladiators captain Sarfaraz Ahmed emphasized that his side will be playing in a must-win situation as they restart Pakistan Super League (PSL) season six campaign.

2019 PSL champions will take on Islamabad United tonight in the 18th match of the season. Gladiators are at the bottom of the points table with two points.

“We are already behind on the table and cannot afford any more defeats. If we want to make it to knockout stage we have to win each match from here on so it is all to play for in Abu Dhabi. We have to put in the best in every department of the game to stay in the competition,” Sarfaraz said while talking to reporters in a virtual presser.

Sarfaraz identified that the side has to improve their bowling and fielding. “Yes we had a horrendous run in Karachi when our game plan went haywire, particularly our fielding. That is surely one area we’ve been working on diligently,” he added.

Wicketkeeper-batsman opined that every individual knows his role and won’t repeat their previous mistakes.

“Every member of the team is capable of delivering and making the best use of his abilities. What we want from our batsmen is to stay at the wicket and make sure that there are enough wickets to go for a kill in the later part of the 20 overs. And when it comes to restricting opponents we should make the best of our bowling abilities,” he maintained.
