However, the former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh has anticipated, “Pakistani team in this World Cup is a low-level team and they will not even qualify for the semi-finals.”
He appreciated the performance of the green shirts in the T20 format and said, “The Pakistani team is a good T20 team, but they are not going to change their record against India in the World Cup stage.”
“I’ve seen Pakistan’s performance in the Asia Cup and World Cup warm-up matches. Pakistan is a low-ranked team, and will not be able to progress in the World Cup.”
On the other hand, the former Indian cricket team captain – Sunil Gavaskar – said, “The India-Pakistan match is as important as winning the World Cup. This match is the most important event of the tournament, and fans are always enthusiastic about India-Pakistan encounters.”
It is pertinent to mention here that Pakistan will start its World Cup campaign today against the Netherlands.
