Afridi dropped for second ODI

AGENCE FRANCE PRESSE

PESHAWAR, Nov 7: Pakistan cricket captain Aamir Sohail today said he was hopeful his team would bounce back in the second One-Day International against Australia here.

Pakistan smarting from their defeat in the first match in Karachi by 86 runs, show three changes in their line-up for the second match to be played tomorrow.

Visibly upset at Pakistan's batting failure, Sohail said he was hopeful the team would ``leave the defeat behind and stage a comeback.''

``We have been trying different combinations and players have not settled down which is the main reason for our loss in Dhaka and here in the first match,'' Sohail said.
