What they say "Quotes"

"We have a young side but have the potential to beat anyone. We have skill and it won't be an easy task for New Zealand to win the series.'Pakistan bowling coach Azhar Mahmood

'They do have a good attack all round, they complement each other well and they're a well balanced side, much like ourselves. It is a tough series and it's important we're good again in the next [ODI]." -New Zealand captain Kane Williamson
