Talking to the media ahead of the Test series against England, he expressed confidence in his team’s preparation and the potential to exploit England’s aggressive playing style. He said that just one day left before the start of the match, he shared his thoughts on the pitch, game plan, and the team’s mindset. Commenting on the pitch conditions in Multan, Saud Shakeel admitted uncertainty. “At this point, it was hard to predict how the pitch will behave. It could be fast or slow, he said.

The vice-captain highlighted the difference in roles between captain and vice-captain, acknowledging the significant responsibilities that rest on captain’s shoulders. “There was a big difference between a captain and a vice-captain.

However, he was confident in Pakistan’s ability to learn from past mistakes and put pressure on England. “Our goal was to force England into making mistakes” he said and added that the England play attacking cricket, but with that comes opportunities for us to capitalize on their errors. The Pakistan vice-captain was optimistic about his team’s chances, particularly against England’s relatively inexperienced fast bowlers.
