“Hopefully, we can go one step closer and try to lift the trophy. Some really good cricketers have come out of the Qalandars. We have a good squad and need one final push,” Patel said during an interview with Cricket Pakistan.
“Now, with Shaheen as the captain, Qalandars have a new leader with new ideas. I think we can go one step further. The bowling will take care of itself, but if we get our batting right, we could be a dangerous force,” he added.
The all-rounder said that fans were amazing at all the venues across Pakistan.
“The crowd plays a big part and when you play in Lahore, in front of the home crowd, there’s a lot of expectations and a lot of pressure,” the all-rounder said.
“We have played a few amazing games there, the one against Quetta [Gladiatiors] where I and Dunky [Ben Dunk] scored runs and I took wickets in the other game, the crowd was fantastic,” Patel said.
“Karachi is not a happy hunting ground for Lahore as our record there is not that much good but the crowd is fantastic all over Pakistan,” he said.
