To a query about Hasan Ali’s performance, Philander accepted the fact that he conceded runs but called him a ‘champion bowler’.
“We know Hasan conceded runs and we will work on that. But, he is our champion bowler and we support him,” he maintained.
Hasan conceded most 44 runs for Pakistan in his four overs against India. He also bagged a wicket.
