Pakistan are 2-0 down in the four-match series and have attracted criticism for their sloppy fielding and batting.
Pakistan's failure to hold their catches in the last Test meant they were never in the game and they eventually went down by nine wickets after a 354-run thrashing in the opener.
The touring party has been bolstered by the arrival of Mohammad Yousuf, although the veteran batsman was too jet-lagged to play in the Edgbaston Test.
But Farhat has told the youngsters in the side it is time to pay back the confidence Waqar Younis and his staff have shown in them as they attempt to square the series by winning the last two Tests.
The 28-year-old said “This is a time to be very honest -- the criticism has been going round and now we have to repay our coaches and our country as well. We are looking to win this match.
“For the youngsters it is not easy to play in this country and the management have been giving us more chances to get adjusted.
“We are not going to play at home so rather than keep shuffling and changing players we are carrying on with the same squad rather than keep going to other players.
“It is a good sign that we are giving the youngsters the chance to get better and better and better.
“We are mostly working on our fielding sessions. It can happen, no-one means to drop a catch all we can do is work hard and do our best.
“It is true that catches win matches. If we had caught the catches we might be in a different situation.”—AFP
