Karachi, Feb 5 (IANS) Pakistan's former captain Waqar Younis claimed there are some hidden reasons behind the team's terrible performance in Australia.

Waqar was Pakistan's bowling consultant during the tour of Australia and said he would like to disclose why Pakistan performed so poorly down under.

'The performance of players was not the only reason behind the poor showing,' Waqar was quoted as saying in The News. 'I will reveal the hidden reasons if summoned by any probe committee.'
