Pakistan head coach Mickey Arthur on Tuesday said he expects the team to perform well in the upcoming Test against the West Indies.

Pakistan’s batting line-up collapsed in the second innings of the first Test.

“I really hope the team will do well and improve its performance in the second Test,” said the head coach while talking to DawnNews in the United Arab Emirates.

Arthur added that the performance of the Test team has been satisfactory in recent Test series.

“The performance of the team in England was very motivating, and the motivation can drive the team for years,” said Arthur.

The coach was all praise for Yasir Shah, and said that Shah will be a “champion bowler for Pakistan in the future as he is an exceptional bowler”.

“The upcoming tours of Australia and New Zealand will be the real test for the team, but I am looking forward to the challenge along with the team,” said the coach.

The remaining two Tests of the series against the West Indies will be played in Abu Dhabi (October 21-25) and Sharjah (October 30-November 3).
