Yousuf want to be captain till 2011

February 09, 2010 04:35 PM

Pakistan captain Mohammad Yousuf has said that he wants to lead Pakistan at least till 2011.

After losing all the games in Australia, he said his team has done a fair job.

"I was captain for just two-and-half months on two of the toughest tours in the cricket world and I think my young team did pretty well. It is only fair that I should be given a longer run to implement my plans and try to build up this team"—he said.

He also criticized the board’s decision to sack players and selectors after every poor series. Yousuf also urged for some support from people and media.

"This constant changing and chopping of the team management and captain every time we lose a series is not good for Pakistan cricket. People and the media must understand that they need to back us. Only then can this team develop into world beaters"—he said.

"Allow this team to prove its worth in two or three series. Don't write us off and push for changes just because we lost in Australia. How many teams have done well in Australia in recent years?"—he added.
