Rahul Dravid Pakistan Quotations

I am looking forward to the series, it should be a good one. We had a very good tour of Pakistan last time and I enjoyed the country and enjoyed going there. Hope the same this time.

It is a different competition with different rules. Pakistan is a good one-day side especially at home. We have a young side who has done well recently. We are looking forward to it.

Pakistan is not an easy team to beat. We have had to play well to beat them in the series. I am happy with the strides we are taking as a team. As captain, it has been heartening to see that the boys are responding well to some of the challenges being thrown at them.

Pakistan have got some good players all round. I think if we focus on just one or two players in the team, we will be making a mistake and I think if they focus on one or two players in our team, they will be making a mistake because we have shown over the last month that a lot of our guys are performing.

Sri Lanka was higher than us, so was South Africa and now Pakistan was number two. So we have played well against teams higher than us.

We will not target individual players. We will play Pakistan as a team.

It was a great professional performance from our team. We had four run outs in Pakistan innings that was fantastic. The boys were confident after our bowlers did well and restricted Pakistan to 265 on a good batting wicket.

It's very heartening the way we have responded to big Pakistan totals in both the Test matches. It's not easy to bat after staying on the field for two days.
