Hassan Ali reveals emotional scene after T20 WC 2021 semi-final defeat

Lahore: National cricketer Hassan Ali revealed that following Pakistan's defeat by Australia in the semi-final of the 2021 T20 World Cup, the entire team entered the dressing room and shed tears.

During a recent podcast interview, Hassan Ali touched upon the emotional aftermath of Pakistan's loss in the T20 World Cup 2021 semi-finals.

Hassan Ali mentioned that it was natural for everyone present in the dressing room to be moved to tears, as the entire team had become emotional.

They had put their best effort into the tournament and were determined to win, but the situation took an unexpected turn.

Some of the players were visibly emotional right on the field after the match.

The fast bowler went on to describe how, inside the dressing room, all the players found their own corners and began to cry. The senior players stepped in to console the junior players during this difficult moment.

Hassan Ali shared that within the team, they affectionately refer to their captain, Babar Azam, as the "king."

In times of adversity, all the players turn to Babar, acknowledging his leadership and support.

It's worth recalling that in the T20 World Cup semi-final in November 2021, a crucial turning point came in the 19th over when Matthew Wade hit a high shot to midwicket.

Hassan Ali, who had been performing well in the tournament and had conceded only 13 runs in three overs before that, dropped the catch in a crucial moment.

This mishap ultimately cost Pakistan the trophy and led to their loss against Australia in the semi-final.

Australia later emerged victorious in the T20 World Cup final by defeating New Zealand.
