ISLAMABAD: West Indies assistant coach Mushtaq Ahmed is expecting to witness an attacking game between Pakistan and the Windies when both teams will open their World Cup campaigns at Trent Bridge in Nottingham on Friday.
Mushtaq said his heart is Pakistani but one should be professional. “I should be sincere and loyal with the team which has hired me,” a private news channel quoted Mushtaq Ahmed as saying.
Providing some insight on what to expect when West Indies play Pakistan, Mushtaq believed the West Indies batting could hurt Pakistan.
“The four bowlers they have included are fast and can trouble Pakistan. They are a very dangerous team and will go for an attacking option against Pakistan,” he said.
Pakistan winners of the 1992 World Cup are ranked sixth in ODI cricket, while West Indies won the tournament in 1975, 79 and are ranked eighth.
