Mohammad Irfan set for tall deeds for Pakistan

Tall Pakistani pacer Mohammad Irfan says he is ready for an international challenge and hopes to deliver the goods in the forthcoming Twenty20 series against India

The 6ft, 10 Irfan, who made an international debut during the 2010 tour of England, went wicketless in the two one-day internationals he played in. But he believes he is prepared for a fresh start to his international career.

"I was put under tremendous pressure in that game (vs England) as I was flown in and then asked to play at short notice. I was suffering from jetlag and had fitness issues, and of course I was also nervous.

All these issues affected my performance but all that is in the past. I have worked very hard and if given a chance, I will be ready for the big occasion," Irfan was quoted as saying by pakpassion.net.
