Pakistan Team (Pic Source: X) Former player Mohammad Asif believes that the current Pakistan team will face defeat against USA in the upcoming T20 World Cup 2026. Let us tell you, in the T20 World Cup 2024 played this year, Pakistan had to face defeat against USA under the captaincy of Babar Azam. In this entire tournament, the players of the Pakistan team failed to leave their mark and this is the reason why they failed to win even against an associate team like USA. Mohammad Asif said on ‘The Naksh Khan Show’ that, ‘We had to face defeat against USA who were playing the T20 World Cup for the first time. They had not even qualified for this tournament but were playing because the T20 World Cup 2024 was being played at their home. Looking at the current situation, it can be said that USA will defeat Pakistan in the T20 World Cup 2026 as well and I am completely sure about this. Here is the video: Talking about the match played in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, Pakistan batted first and scored 159 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in 20 overs. Shadab Khan played an innings of 40 runs for the team while captain Babar Azam scored 44 runs at a strike rate of 102.33. In the last over, the hosts needed 15 runs to win the match. Haris Rauf gave 14 runs in the last over and the match went to the super over. Mohammad Aamir gave 18 runs in the super over and in reply, Pakistan team could score only 13 runs after losing one wicket and lost the match. The batsmen of the Pakistan team could not leave their mark in this entire tournament. Not only this, many questions were raised on the captaincy of Babar Azam. The most disappointing thing for the team was that it could not even qualify for the Super 8.

SL vs IND: India made these two big mistakes in the first ODI, if the same mistake happens again in the next match then it may have to lose the series
The second ODI match between India and Sri Lanka will be played on August 4. SL vs IND (Photo Source: Getty Images) The first match of the ODI series between Sri Lanka and India (SL vs IND) ended in a tie. The hosts batted first and scored 230 runs for the loss of 8 wickets. In response, Team India was all out for 230 runs in 47.5 overs while chasing the target. Charith Aslanka saved the match from going into India’s bag by dismissing Shivam Dubey and Arshdeep Singh in the 48th over. This match was nothing less than a nightmare for Rohit Sharma and company, as the team could not register a win despite being in control in both the innings. Let us tell you about the two mistakes due to which India had to face defeat, and also tell you about a masterstroke that the team did right during the first ODI. SL vs IND: Masterstroke – Rohit Sharma’s batting in the powerplay Indian captain Rohit Sharma was once again seen giving the team a stormy start. Rohit played his shots beautifully against both pace and spinner bowlers in the powerplay. Shubman Gill, batting from the other end, did not look anything special. There was a partnership of 75 runs between the two for the first wicket. Shubman Gill scored 16 runs in 35 balls, while Rohit Sharma played an innings of 58 runs in 47 balls with the help of 7 fours and 3 sixes. SL vs IND: India made these two mistakes during the first ODI match- 1. Shivam Dubey gave more strike to Mohammad Siraj When Mohammed Siraj came to bat, India needed 20 runs to win, and more than five overs were left. Shivam Dubey was completely set and it seemed that the team could easily win this game. Dubey and Siraj played 19 balls in their partnership, out of these balls, Siraj played 11 balls. Shivam Dubey is a good player of spin, he could have made things easier for the team by coming forward and playing more balls in this partnership, but he did not do anything like that. 2. Arshdeep Singh’s wrong shot When Arshdeep Singh came to bat, the team needed 1 run to win and had one wicket in hand. Arshdeep tried to play a slog-sweep shot, which was not the right shot against an off-spinner. Arshdeep could have easily taken a run by hitting the ball on any side of the ground, but he did not show his understanding and India had to face defeat.

So, he knows how to make the team win. I am sure he will come with the same enthusiasm as a coach. Veda further said- The coming days are exciting, there are many important tournaments. So, there will be some problems and we know that no task is easy. When you win everything is good, but when you lose fingers are pointed.

They were also called chokers because they always lost in the semi-finals, so it will be difficult to predict how they will perform in the final. But yes, they will do their best to win and India will have to be careful that they do not become overconfident and we do not lose. The hope is that we put up a good score.” Kirti Azad further said for IND vs SA Final- “As we saw the pitches last time in the semi-finals, the ball was not bouncing much and was staying low. We have to be careful and give them a good target. We have to make South Africa choke.” “I was confident that the way the Indian team is, we will perform well and win the World Cup. The performance of all the players has been excellent, especially bowlers like Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh, Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel are bowling well. India’s bowling attack is the best. The biggest plus point for our team is Rohit’s batting.”

“If Virat Kohli opens, India may lose the match” Warning received before IND vs PAK
Kamran Akmal says that Virat Kohli should play only at number three. Virat Kohli, IND vs PAK (Pic Source X) Former Pakistan cricketer Kamran Akmal has issued a warning to India about their batting line-up ahead of their clash against Pakistan in the T20 World Cup 2024. Kamran Kamal says Virat Kohli should not open with Rohit Sharma and should bat at his usual number 3 position. Team India will face its arch-rival Pakistan on June 9. The entire cricket world is eagerly waiting for this match. Meanwhile, Akmal disagreed with Kohli opening in the top order and called India’s batting order wrong. He feels that if Kohli plays at number three, he can provide extra support to the team and finish the game, as he has done in the past. Akmal wanted Yashasvi Jaiswal to open with Rohit. India is making a big mistake: Kamran Akmal Kamran Akmal says that Virat Kohli should play at number three. He believes that Kohli has the ability to handle pressure as well as finish the match at this position. Akmal said on his YouTube channel, “I don’t think India’s batting order is right. Virat Kohli can handle pressure at number 3 and finish the match. This is very important for Team India. Yashasvi Jaiswal should start batting. Kohli should come at number 3. If India sticks to this batting order (Kohli), they can get stuck at some point. Kohli holds one end and finishes the match. I think India is making a mistake by making Kohli open.” Can Virat Kohli make it a hat-trick of T20 WC fifties against Pakistan? Kohli has scored half-centuries in the last two T20 World Cup matches against Pakistan. In the 2021 edition in the UAE, Kohli scored 57 runs off 49 balls, although India lost that match. His unbeaten 82 off 53 balls in the 2022 World Cup after that is considered one of the greatest T20 innings of all time. Kohli will want to score runs again in this important match on Sunday. Hopefully Kohli can hit a hat-trick of 50+ against Pakistan.
“I think the pitch…”, Rohit Sharma gets angry on New York pitch, might he lose the match to Pakistan?
India’s next match is against Pakistan on June 9, in such a situation Team India is surprised to see the condition of the pitch.

Rohit Sharma furious on New York pitch After the match, Rohit said, “New ground, new venue and we wanted to see what it feels like to play here. I think the pitch has not settled yet and was helping the bowlers a lot. In such a situation, it was important to stick to our basics and remember Test match bowling.” We will make changes according to the needs of the team Praising Arshdeep Singh’s bowling, Rohit Sharma said, “Arshdeep is adept at creating rhythm by swinging the ball in front of right-handed batsmen. I don’t think four spinners can be fielded on such a ground. If the conditions are favorable to the fast bowlers, then only they will play. The spinners will do their job later in the tournament. We will make changes according to the needs of the team.” India’s next match is against Pakistan on 9 June. In such a situation, the question in the minds of the fans is whether this condition of the pitch should not become the reason for Team India’s defeat.

Actually, with CSK’s defeat in the last match, their playoff calculations have gone a little awry. Now if the team wants to qualify for the playoffs, it will have to win both the remaining matches. If CSK team loses even one match from here then their hopes of reaching the playoffs will be dashed. In such a situation, if CSK fails to reach the playoffs, then this could be Dhoni’s last match in Chennai. In fact, former CSK captain MS Dhoni had expressed a wish a few years ago that he wanted to play his last IPL match in front of CSK fans on the Chennai ground. If he does not do this then it will be injustice to the fans. Many people believe that this could be MS Dhoni’s last IPL season.

After this they will have to depend on the results of other teams. After this, Chennai Super Kings have to play the last match of the season against Royal Challengers Bangalore. This match will be played at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. On the other hand, if Chennai Super Kings manages to qualify for the playoffs, then fans can get a glimpse of Dhoni at MA Chidambaram Stadium not once but twice.
“We will not be able to win such matches” What was such a big mistake in choosing the Indian team that the former cricketer got angry; Will India lose the World Cup again?
Madan Lal, who was part of the World Cup winning team in 1982, is not confident about the team selection. Team India (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Team India SWOT Analysis by Madan Lal: BCCI has announced the 15-member Indian team for the upcoming T20 World Cup under the leadership of Rohit Sharma. Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj and Arshdeep Singh have been included among the fast bowlers in the T20 World Cup squad, while Khaleel Ahmed and Avesh Khan have been included as reserves. However, Madan Lal, who was a part of the 1983 World Cup winning team, is not confident about the team selection. In a recent interview, former veteran cricketer Madan Lal said about India’s pace attack, “I didn’t like India’s pace attack. Jasprit Bumrah Apart from this, the rest of the bowling has not been that impressive. Siraj has performed well at the domestic level, but he is not that good at the international level. I think India is becoming weak in terms of fast bowling.” Madan Lal feels that players like Siraj and Arshdeep are the current IPL He has not been able to perform well in 2024, so expecting performance from him in the World Cup would prove wrong. Team India has a lot of confidence in Jasprit Bumrah: Madan Lal The Indian team is dependent on Jasprit Bumrah for better performance. On this Madan Lal said- “Not just in T20 cricket, you need a good fast bowler who can get you match-winning wickets. Jasprit Bumrah is a wicket-taker and match-winning bowler. Let’s see how Siraj performs. Otherwise India will depend on Bumrah to a great extent. The problem is that India should have got another good fast bowler who can take wickets as per the conditions.” Former veteran Madan Lal further said- “If you look at the history, India have performed well only when they have a good pace attack. That’s why he won many matches. But I am not sure about Arshdeep and I am not sure about Siraj either. I think Pandya is not that effective and I think the team management has taken a risk on him. So we have to see how Siraj and Arshdeep bowl apart from Jasprit Bumrah. I don’t feel that confident in terms of bowling.” ‘I would have chosen Natarajan’ Madan Lal When asked about his favorite fast bowler, Madan Lal said- ‘If I had a chance to choose a bowler, I would choose Natarajan. Because he is a good bowler in death overs. Mayank Yadav is very young in age and experience. “His pace is good, but the thing is whether he can bowl consistently, but that is what Natarajan is doing in every match.”
“He will lose his consistency…”- Aakash Chopra gave a strong warning to Virat Kohli
Aakash Chopra was the batsman who scored the most runs in the World Cup 2023. Virat Kohli and Aakash Chopra. (Image Source: X) Former Indian opener Aakash Chopra has spoken openly about Virat Kohli. He revealed what impact Virat Kohli can make in the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024, which will be played in West Indies and United States of America (USA) this June. Let us tell you that Kohli made a comeback to India’s T20I team during the second match against Afghanistan at the Holkar Stadium in Indore. He last played in the shortest format of the game in the T20 World Cup in 2022. During the Indore T20I, Kohli scored 29 runs in 16 balls at a strike rate of 181.25, which included five fours. The most interesting thing about that is that, Aakash Chopra believed that the former India captain would be a big threat to the opposing teams in the marquee event. The 46-year-old also mentioned Kohli’s career strike rate which is around 138. Chopra also believes that Kohli can change gears whenever needed and play as per the match situation. Aakash Chopra is praising Virat Kohli a lot Aakash Chopra said on his YouTube channel that Kohli has all types of gear. He can play fast or slow. He can also play run-a-ball. Kohli is at his best when he lasts for a long period of time. You are afraid of going to the forest because there is a lion there. It is not inevitable that a lion will eat you whenever you enter the forest, but the knowledge of the lion being there scares you. Virat Kohli is that lion. When Virat Kohli is at the crease, the opposing teams are always scared. Apart from this, Aakash Chopra believes that the matches of T-20 World Cup 2024 will not be high scoring. He further mentioned the 35-year-old’s innings against arch-rivals Pakistan in the 2022 T20 World Cup and said that they should adopt a similar approach in the upcoming edition. He further said, “Sher needs to be present on the pitch, especially on pitches where the total will be between 160 and 180. 220 will not be the total there. So you expect Virat Kohli to stand there and accelerate later on. That innings which was called a century innings, the one in Pakistan, there also you would find that he was going a little higher than a run-a-ball. He stepped up in the end and won the match for India. If Virat becomes over-aggressive, there is a lack of consistency, which you don’t want.” Also read: DSG captain Keshav Maharaj’s special message to Indian fans
