Pakistan's Test and ODI captain Misbah-ul-Haq has expressed his willingness to revive his Twenty20 career, provided the Cricket Board (PCB) and national selectors want him to do so.

"I stepped away from T20 Internationals to give youngsters a chance. But I have continued to play in domestic T20 cricket and if the selectors and board want me to play T20 Internationals again I will do it," Misbah told reporters in Lahore.

The senior batsman also insisted that he was under no pressure while leading the Test and ODI sides despite the national team's poor performances in recent times.

"I am thankful the board reposed confidence in me again. I take captaincy as a challenge but even when we were losing in the UAE to South Africa the players were determined to come out of the bad run," Misbah said.
 

"It is all a matter of getting your momentum going and we were always confident that we could bounce back in South Africa and we did that and now the team has got back its momentum," Misbah added.

The Pakistan captain also insisted that he was keen to achieve a clean sweep in the recent ODI series over South Africa.
