Hafeez has recently revealed that he has especially focused on the power hitting department after visiting Caribbean Premier League. He said Pakistani batsmen mainly focus on their techniques and that is why when other teams are piling loads of runs, Pakistan batsmen struggle to reach 259 runs.
He said he was impressed with the West Indian players who practised on their power hitting regularly in the nets and try to play long shots.

He also urged the Pakistani batsmen to practice the same along with working on their batting techniques as it was only the way forward in white ball cricket.
