Pakistan, who were the runners-up in the previous edition of the T20 World Cup, had a disappointing campaign this time around. Despite registering wins against Canada and Ireland, they finished in third place in Group A after early exits due to losses to the USA and India in the group stage.
Former England captain Michael Vaughan provided a humorous response when asked to rate Pakistan’s performance on a scale of 1 to 10. Referring to their lackluster performance, Vaughan jokingly commented on their inability to reach the ‘Super 8’ stage.
Pakistan captain Babar Azam acknowledged the team’s shortcomings, particularly in batting. He noted that while the bowling was strong, the batting department faltered in crucial moments. Babar emphasized the need for improvement and vowed to address the team’s weaknesses before their next tournament. He highlighted the importance of teamwork and expressed his willingness to adapt his batting position based on the team’s needs.
Despite their disappointing campaign this time around, Babar remained optimistic about Pakistan’s prospects in future competitions. He stated his commitment to contributing in whatever capacity is necessary for the team’s success.
