Micky Arthur lashes out at the players performance in the second test against England

*LONDON – Head coach of Pakistan cricket team Mickey Arthur said that histeam was paying the price for posting a “substandard” first-innings scorein the Headingley Test match against England.*

Arthur urged his side to play the way they did in the Lord’s Test during aninterview.

“If you win the toss and bat, you’ve got to put the opposition underpressure. You’ve got to score 300 plus,” he said. “We need to go back anddo what we did at Lord’s.”

“We showed a lot of patience and a lot of discipline.”

He stated that the side was committed to attack and defence.

“On wickets like this, we speak three words: discipline, intent andtechnique. We want them to attack and defend with intent. But, we need tomake those decisions a bit clearer.”

Arthur asked his bowlers to dismiss the English batsmen and make a comebackwith the bat in their second innings.
