KARACHI: If the Indian World Twenty20 team is good, then our team is just as good, stated all-rounder Shahid Afridi while speaking to the media in Karachi.

He further said that the "Pakistan cricket team had just returned from Bangladesh and therefore should take advantage of it", adding that it was familiar with the conditions in Bangladesh as well as the pitch.

On March 2, Afridi had led Pakistan to a thrilling victory against its arch-rivals during the Asia Cup by scoring two consecutive sixes in the last over of the match.

Commenting on the Indian team's recent performance, the all-rounder said that even though the Indian team was strong, they have not been performing well.

The cricket-star remarked that he trusted the Pakistani team but a lot of hard work was required for the WorldTwenty20, further stating that the team should make lesser mistakes for better results.
