David Leggat, writing in the New Zealand Herald, says Pakistan's successful run on the tour of New Zealand has much to do with their captain Misbah-ul-Haq's impressive performance.
Misbah scored 9, 76 not out, 77 and 58 not out in the two drawn tests against the South Africans. Put those together with his New Zealand test return and Misbah has hit 451 runs at 112.75.
Unwanted in the one-day team for a year until last October, Misbah is averaging 40.27 with 11 fifties from 62 games overall.
