Retiring Pakistan captain Misbah-ul Haq vowed to roll back the years and lead his team to victory in the World Cup starting in Australia and New Zealand next month.

Misbah said his retirement decision after the World Cup in Australia has given him extra motivation to capture the trophy Pakistan last won 23 years ago.
