Misbah on his captaincy 'education'

Misbah-ul-Haq on what it takes to captain Pakistan, and what captaining Pakistan has taught him, in an interview with the BBC's Stephan Shemilt.

As he watched from afar, Pakistani cricket was plunged into darkness by the spot-fixing of captain Salman Butt and fast bowlers Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir. In the aftermath, the national side turned to Misbah's calming influence. His first match as captain was also his Test recall. "I realised it was time to take responsibility," said Misbah. "You have to stand up, show the world that you are a good cricketing nation, not only with your performances, but also your conduct and behaviour. You can still be professional, you can still amaze people and fans can enjoy your cricket. That was the challenge at that time."
