T20 World Cup, 1st Semi-final, Pakistan's Predicted XI vs New Zealand: Will Pakistan Tinker With Winning Combination?
NDTV
T20 World Cup 2022: Shan Masood is the top run-scorer for Pakistan and Shadab Khan is their leading wicket-taker.
The Babar Azam-led Pakistan have made a miraculous entry into the semi-finals of the ongoing T20 World Cup. Their hopes of making it to the last-four stage were all but finished after they lost to India and Zimbabwe in their first two games of the tournament. However, wins in the next two games and South Africa's shock defeat to the Netherlands opened the doors for the side. The side then beat Bangladesh in a virtual quarter-final to set up a semi-final clash with New Zealand.
Mohammad Rizwan: The wicketkeeper-batter has failed to live up to the expectations. He has scored 103 runs across five matches with a strike rate of 100.
Babar Azam (captain): The Pakistan captain has been a complete flop so far. He scored only 39 runs across five matches in the Super 12 stage.
Mohammad Nawaz: While not many runs have come off his bat, Nawaz has also failed to pick wickets on a consistent basis. Out of the 5 matches played, he picked only two wickets.
