The Interim coach of Pakistan Cricket team Mohsin Khan comfortable with the new ODI rules

The interim coach of the Pakistan Cricket Team Mohsin Khan decelerated that his team is comfortable with the ODI rule change for the batting and bowling power-plays as his side prepares for the first One Day game on Friday against Sri Lanka.

According to the changed rules, both the teams have to consume their batting and bowling power-plays at the beginning of any over between 16th and the 36th over for a full game which means that no team can leave their power-plays for
the last ten over’s. Secondly, two new balls will be used from each end during an inning.

The changes in the ODI rules came into effect from 1st October as Pakistan and Sri Lanka will be playing their first One Day International game under the revised rules.

The active Pakistani coach Mohsin Khan, who is also the chairman of selectors, believes that the revised rule will bring more balance in the game and his team is well prepared for the change.

“They will give more balance to the one-day matches. We know we are up against a very good team. We have played well against them and know that we have to be at our best to beat them again.” Mohsin Khan said.

While the Pakistani squad is geared up to beat their opponents in the best of five series, the rival coach Geoff Marsh is hopeful that his team will carry the same momentum from the last test match, which was drawn due to rain on the final day, and give
Pakistani team a tough time.

“Obviously one-dayers are a different form but we are happy the way we ended the last game and had there been no rain we had a good chance of winning. We have a good balance in one-day and we know that Pakistan is also a very good team. When they play well
they play really well,”
