We Considered Pulling Out Of New Zealand Tour: Misbah-Ul-Haq
Pakistan head coach Misbah-ul-Haq said that his team considered pulling out of the New Zealand tour after some of the touring party members tested positive for Covid-19 on arrival. As many as eight members of the Pakistan team tested positive with some members even breaching the local health protocols. It forced the New Zealand authorities to put them under strict quarantine with no access to practice and training facilities.
"Obviously these aren't normal circumstances; what happens here isn't ideal. But then for the sake of international cricket you want cricket to go on, and being a big stakeholder, we will give our full effort to help cricket overall. We did discuss (about pulling out of the tour) but then finally decided to say no to this option because when you invest this much time on this, then you have got to give it a shot," Misbah was quoted as saying by ESPNCricinfo.
