Javed Miandad said that Pakistan can’t just rely on an in-form Babar Azam to steer them ahead in the T20 World Cup 2021.
Former Pakistan captain Javed Miandad believes a fearless approach would be crucial to his country’s chances of upstaging a star-studded India when the two arch-rivals clash in their highly-anticipated T20 World Cup 2021 opener on October 24. India have never lost to Pakistan in an ICC World Cup, either 50-over or T20.
“The match against India will be crucial to getting momentum in the tournament. They are a strong side and have several top players but if we can play without fear and pressure and everyone does his bit we can beat them,” he said.
Miandad believes that the Pakistan team has the capability of doing well in the event if it puts in a collective effort against Virat Kohli and Co. “T20 format is one where people think that one or two players can win you matches but I look at it this way that in this format everyone needs to contribute in some way or the other for a team to be a winning outfit,” Miandad said.
