The Twenty20 World Cup will be held in Australia in October this year. India, who were knocked out of the group stage after a poor performance in the last World Cup, will be aiming to regain the title this time around. For the first time in history, India lost to Pakistan in the last World Cup.
In the last World Cup match, the Indian players went into the tent one by one without surrendering to the strength of the Pakistani bowlers. In reply, India lost to Pakistan by 10 wickets when the bowlers failed to take a single wicket. India’s squad selection for the last World Cup also drew a lot of criticism. One of the biggest controversies was the omission of leg-spinner Yusvendra Chahal.
Former Pakistan fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar has said that India will win the World Cup against Pakistan. “It will not be easy for Pakistan to win against India,” Akhtar said. Akhtar was talking about the fight that will take place on October 23 at the MCG.
“India cannot field a team against Pakistan without telling the players exactly their roles,” he said. The management team must be carefully selected and I fully believe that it will be a solid team. This will not be an easy walkover for Pakistan this time. If India picks the right team for the tournament, they have a very good chance of beating Pakistan. India and Pakistan are good teams so it is impossible to predict victory, ”Akhtar said.
