LAHORE: Multan Sultans spider Usama Mir praised his captain Muhammad Rizwan for leading from the front against Lahore Qalandars in the ninth edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) on Tuesday. Speaking to the media in Lahore after a brilliant bowling show, Mir said, “Credit goes to Mohammad Rizwan for the team’s victory.
The type of person Mohammad Rizwan is keeps everyone united. ” “My captain had faith in me that allowed me to perform today,” he added. Mir paid tribute to his mother saying, “My mother came to watch today’s match. It’s because of my mother’s prayers that I packed six today.” Recalling the sajda he made after taking six wickets, Mir said, “My mother loves those who make sajda. That’s why I made a sajda after bagging for six”.
“I played a lot of T20s last year and delivered. But all of a sudden my performance was not up to the level of ODIs, because of which I was upset,” he added. He praised the fringe player Faisal Akram saying, “Faisal Akram gave a great performance. He is one for the future of Pakistan cricket.” Mir pointed to efforts to improve his game, saying, “I tried to correct my mistakes by watching videos.”
