KUALA LUMPUR: Pakistan, who have made only minimal changes to their team, will be hoping for an improved showing when they enter the fray in the Junior Asia Cup which starts on Saturday in Kuantan.

Pakistan finished a dismal last in last month’s Sultan of Johor Cup last month and failed to win a single match but coach Tahir Zaman, who made only three changes to the line-up, is optimistic that his Under-21 team will do well in Kuantan, especially after playing several test matches back home.
