Pakistan look to end losing streak against favourites India
Babar Azam-led Pakistan will look to end their losing streak in today’s clash. India has won all the 12 matches against Pakistan at the T20 and 50-over World Cups.
The national team entered the tournament with 1o wins in a row in the UAE. Former all-rounder Mudassar Nazar believes that Pakistan can defeat India.
Babar, who is in top form with two T20 centuries this year, believes his team can break the World Cup jinx.
“Definitely, we have played a lot of cricket in the UAE,” Babar said when asked about his team’s dismal 0-5 record against India in T20 World Cup clashes.
