\nPakistan\u2019s middle order batsman Iftikhar Ahmed has said he takes positive out of peoples\u2019 criticism on him.
\n\u201cMy performance is not as bad as people point fingers at me. Those who talk negatively, I take positive out of it,\u201d Iftikhar said during a news confernece as he talked about Pakistan\u2019s defeat at the hands of arch rival India.
\n\u201cI don\u2019t think there was any shortage from our part; India got good momentum. You have to give credit to Virat Kohli; he played brilliantly,\u201d he said.

\nSpeaking to the media after India\u2019s defeat by four wickets, Iftikhar said that the Pakistan-India match has always been challenging, which is cricket\u2019s beauty.
\n\u201cI try to give my hundred percent in every match; I did not know that I became the first Pakistani batsman to hit four sixes in Australia,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
