LONDON: Failing to register themselves in the coveted top 4 of the ICC World Cup 2019, Pakistani players left London to head back to the country on Saturday.
Although dejected over their exit from the tournament, the overall performance of the team was satisfactory, captain Sarfaraz Ahmed said.
He added that his individual performance could have been better though.
After arrival, skipper Sarfaraz will hold a press conference on Sunday at Karachi's National Stadium and Imad Wasim and Shadab Khan in Islamabad on Monday.
Moreover, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has organised Babar Azam and Imam ul Haq's press conference to be held on Tuesday at Lahore's Gaddafi Stadium.
