Pakistan Eye T20 World Cup Glory After Runners-Up Finish

Pakistan, the 2009 T20 World Cup champions, are poised to make a strong run in the upcoming tournament in the United States. Despite a recent 0-2 series loss to England, the unpredictable Pakistani squad, led by Babar Azam, remains a formidable force.

In a video released by the official broadcaster, key players expressed their excitement and determination to rectify the mistakes made in the previous edition, where they finished as runners-up to England.

Babar Azam, the skipper, emphasized the team's thorough preparation and the unique excitement of playing in a major event. Shaheen Shah Afridi, the pace spearhead, acknowledged the novelty of the tournament's location in the US, expressing hope for a successful campaign.

Mohammad Rizwan, the keeper-batter, recalled the team's disappointment in the previous final and their resolve to learn from their past mistakes. Naseem Shah, another pacer, highlighted the team's excitement for the new conditions and their desire to hold the trophy aloft.

Azam Khan, the keeper-batter, expressed his joy at participating in his first World Cup and the unexpected opportunity to play in the United States.

Pakistan's opening match against the US in Dallas on Thursday will set the tone for their tournament. However, their highly anticipated clash against archrivals India in New York on Sunday looms large, promising a thrilling encounter between two cricketing powerhouses.
