Pakistan stand a good chance in the ICC World T20 2012, says Azhar Mahmood – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 World T20 title, but doubts Pakistan’s batting line-up’s ability to consistently deliver the goods.
The Men in Green are rated among the favourites of the on-going tournament because of the immense natural talent they have in their ranks.
Over the years, Pakistan have done exceedingly well in the game’s shortest format and remain the only team in the world to have qualified for the semi-finals of all the three World T20s played so far. With 34 wins, no other international side has won more
T20 matches than Pakistan.
While talking to Pakpassion, the cricketer from Rawalpindi expressed that the Green Shirts, if in form, are an extremely hard team to beat in the T20 format and feels that the side has a number of players, who can seriously impact a match.
"http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 – if a batsman can play that kind of innings, he can
win the game almost singlehandedly for any team," Mahmood said.
Having lost the three-match One Day International series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/United-Arab-Emirates-c3033 (UAE), Pakistan bounced back in style to clinch the T20 battle by two games to one earlier this month. However, Mohammad Hafeez and company can be hot or cold
on a given day.
In the presence of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Umar-Gul-c94604, Pakistan surely have one of the world’s finest bowling attacks.
Majority of the Pakistani players took part in the recently concluded inaugural edition of the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758 Premier League (SLPL), which in the all-rounder’s opinion, is going to be an added advantage for Hafeez’s men.
"Pakistan’s bowling has always been good – it’s the batting in which we struggle the most," Azhar mentioned. "All in all, Pakistan has a good chance in this tournament as most of the players in the team have recently taken part in the Sri Lankan Premier
League (SLPL)."
