If the team practise well before the upcoming matches they still can make a turnaround
TURBAT: The most awaited match of the ICC World Cup tournament was between India and Pakistan. However, rain again played a big role, as the downpour caused a number of pauses. The Pakistani team continued its tradition of losing against India in the World Cup, and the supporters were left disappointed. The weakest point was the abrupt loss of three wickets in a row, as Babar Azam was knocked out, followed by Mohammad Hafeez and Fakhar Zaman. The DLS method could be another factor in the defeat of the Pakistani team. Although I am disappointed by the outcome of the match, I am still looking forward to the upcoming matches our team has yet to play. I request the Pakistani audience to also remain hopeful. God willing, Pakistan will solidify their position in the tournament by coming out victorious. There is always room for improvement. If the team practise well before the upcoming matches they still can make a turnaround. They should heed the advice of former high-profile players. The team should not be blamed in case of defeat, because they know more about the pitch and ground conditions.
