Former England cricket team captain Naseer Hussain and Eoin Morgan expressed their views on Pakistan team's chances in the WC 2023.


London: Former England cricket team captains Naseer Hussain and Eoin Morgan have weighed in on Pakistan's chances in the upcoming World Cup.
Naseer Hussain emphasized that Pakistan's performance in the World Cup will heavily rely on the fitness of their fast bowlers.
As of now, Shaheen Afridi is among the three most crucial pacers who are fit, while Haris Rauf and Naseem Shah are facing fitness issues.
The presence of these three bowlers could make Pakistan a formidable and dangerous team, as taking wickets consistently is vital in ODI cricket.
The question of whether Haris and Naseem will be included in the World Cup squad remains unanswered. The response from Pakistan's captain, Babar Azam, regarding this alternative plan is eagerly awaited.
Naseer Hussain acknowledged that Babar Azam holds the position of the number one batsman in the team.
While Fakhar Zaman may be currently out of form, his role in the top order is still significant. However, one of Pakistan's concerns is the lack of form among their spinners.
Hussain added that Pakistan has always been a formidable team in ICC tournaments, with the ability to achieve remarkable victories.
The team's performance can be unpredictable, as they can go from being at the bottom one day to outclassing everyone the next.
Eoin Morgan also chimed in, stating that the Pakistan cricket team is undeniably attractive as a strong side.
Recent results will provide valuable insights into Pakistan's readiness for the World Cup.
Morgan emphasized the importance of not repeating past mistakes in Sri Lanka.
While Pakistan appears to have a well-balanced team, its future success will depend on its ability to execute its plans effectively.
