ICC Chief Executive David Richardson presented the mace to Misbah at the Gaddafi Stadium here and the Pakistan Test skipper said it was befitting that the mace presentation was taking place there.
“There can’t be a better location to receive the ICC Test Championship mace than this ground where we last played a home Test seven years ago,” said Misbah.
“It is ironic for both the players as well as the fans that the journey to the number-one position has been outside Pakistan. The players have missed on the crowd support, while the spectators have been unable to watch live some magnificent team and individual performances. But I am confident that things will change and international cricket will soon return to Pakistan,” he added.
