Let us tell you that Pakistan got out of the group stage of T20 World Cup 2024 after the Ireland and USA match was canceled due to rain. Team India and USA have qualified for Super 8 from Group A.

Meanwhile, former captain Rashid Latif has given a different statement. He has blamed the ICC for Pakistan’s exit from the group stage. He has supported the Pakistan team and targeted the International Cricket Council (ICC) saying that the conditions are not good for the World Cup. Rashid Latif blamed ICC for Pakistan’s defeat Speaking to Cricbuzz, Rashid Latif said, “You can’t blame the Pakistani players for everything. They performed well, but the pitch conditions neutralised their efforts. They should have won both the matches against the USA and India, but the circumstances were beyond their control. It has happened that scoring runs has become difficult. See, even a batsman like Virat Kohli is not able to score runs.” Latif further said that the ICC is responsible for Pakistan’s team not reaching the Super 8. He further said that the bad conditions are not only in America but also in the Caribbean countries. Latif said, individual half-centuries are not too many. No team has scored a half-century against a team like Afghanistan. If a batsman scores a half-century then the team mostly wins. Rishabh Pant scored 42 runs and India defeated Pakistan. The conditions are not ideal for the World Cup.

If the ball is swinging then it is important to take wickets and if there is no movement then I have to bowl in the right areas.

“Even after playing in the shorter formats…”- Rashid Latif furious over the fitness of Pakistani bowlers

Former greats like Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Mohammad Asif were much fitter than today’s bowlers and never missed any Test or ODI – Rashid Latif Rashid Latif and Pakistan Cricket Team (Photo Source: X/Twitter) The Pakistan cricket team is scheduled to play its first match in the T20 World Cup 2024 against the USA in Dallas on June 6 at 9 pm. The Pakistani bowling unit has been a danger to the opposing teams since the beginning, but recently the bowlers themselves are facing their fitness challenges. Former Pakistani legend Rashid Latif has questioned the fitness of the bowlers and has also criticized the team a lot. Rashid Latif says that bowlers are returning from injuries and participating in tournaments, which is a big problem. He also believes that the fitness of today’s Pakistani bowlers is much worse than that of the former legendary bowlers. Despite playing in the shorter formats, they do not have fitness – Rashid Latif Pakistani young fast bowler Naseem Shah was ruled out of the ODI World Cup 2023 due to injury. At the same time, Haris Rauf is going to play the T20 World Cup 2024 after recovering from a shoulder injury. And spinner Imad Wasim has been ruled out of the first match against USA due to side strain. Former Pakistani wicketkeeper-batsman Rashid Latif, while talking to PTI, said, ,Many bowlers like Shaheen, Naseem, Rauf, Shadab have returned from injury and now Imad Wasim is injured. The biggest issue has been the fitness of the bowlers. Former greats like Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Mohammad Asif were much fitter than them and never missed any Test or ODI. But despite playing in the shorter formats, these guys do not have enough fitness. Rashid Latif also raised questions about the team combination Rashid Latif has also raised questions about the team combination. He says that the team has the option of four bowlers to bowl in the initial overs. In such a situation, who will bowl in the middle overs is a big problem. Rashid Latif further said, ‘They have brought back Mohammad Aamir and Imad Wasim in the team. Earlier when these two bowlers played for Pakistan and in PSL, they used to bowl the opening overs between 1-4. Now, Rauf and Shaheen play the same role, if you have four bowlers playing the same role, then who will bowl in the middle overs?

Let us tell you, young player Azam Khan is being trolled fiercely on social media for his body.

Azam Khan also failed to perform well in the recent T20 series against England and he dropped two easy catches while wicketkeeping. According to Rashid Latif, Azam Khan is under a lot of pressure at this time and it is not right to criticize the young player for his body. Rashid Latif told The Indian Express about Azam Khan, ‘He is under a lot of pressure right now. Azam is being criticized a lot for his body. Azam Khan is a very good batsman in T20 cricket. The wicketkeeper batsman can prove to be very lethal against spinners and he has also batted very well against fast bowlers. I feel very bad for this boy, he is just 25 years old and he should not be trolled like this.’ Mohammad Rizwan should keep wicket instead of Azam Khan: Rashid Latif Rashid Latif further said, ‘Mohammad Rizwan is the best wicketkeeper of Pakistan and he has been a warrior for the team. Wicketkeepers take the game forward from behind the stumps. It is not just about DRS but also about other important things of the game. Rizwan is fielding in the deep which is wrong. Babar Azam’s captaincy has been very wrong in this matter. They need Rizwan and if he is not Pakistan’s wicketkeeper, then the team may face a lot of problems in this World Cup. Pakistan has to play its first match of ICC T20 World Cup 2024 against USA on 6 June.
