Mohammad Nabi said, ‘In today’s match we started well in the powerplay but we could not maintain our momentum till the last. We tried to keep a good score but the pitch was slow and we could score few runs. We didn’t even bowl on the right line and length. The fast bowlers kept many balls full toss. That’s why we gave him more chances to shoot. We didn’t play a single match in the last 10 days and that was also a big reason why we couldn’t find the momentum. Now we have one more match left, hopefully we will do better in this.
