Pakistan`s vice-captain Misbah-ul Haq says defending champions India would be a tough team to beat in the upcoming Twenty20 World Championships in England."I think many of their players have gained a lot by playing in the Indian Premier League. It has given them the conf
idence to play T20 cricket the way it should be played -- with a positive frame of mind, sensibly and without any fear of getting out," Misbah told reporters. The middle-order batsman, who was standing-in for captain Younis Khan in yesterday`s one-off T20 match in which Pakistan outclassed Australia in Dubai last night, also expressed confidence about his team, which lost to India in the final in 2007, doing well in the second edition. "I have always said we are good at this form of the game because our players have played lot of domestic T20 cricket and every player knows what his role is supposed to be in this format of cricket," he said. Misbah said the Pakistani players had done well in the inaugural T20 World Cup because of their experience. "Although we have played little T20 international cricket but we have lot of experience at the domestic level." Pakistani players will take part in their national T20 championship in Lahore before going to the World Cup in England.
