Pakistan cricket team
The Pakistan cricket team suffered several major setbacks in the 2023 Asia Cup. Everything was fine in the team until the first Super 4 game against Bangladesh. During this time the team played mainly in Sri Lanka. But in the second Super 4 game against India, there was turmoil within the team. Pakistan suffered a crushing defeat by 228 runs against the Indian team. In addition, two of the team’s major players were also injured. Even Haris Rauf did not come to bowl against India on the reserve day. While Naseem Shah did not come on the field to bat. This was the reason why the Pakistan team was completely eliminated at 128 after losing 8 wickets.
Now another update has been released on fast bowler Naseem Shah who got injured in the game. Information about Shah’s right shoulder injury comes to light. According to Cricinfo, this Pakistan bowler could also miss the upcoming ODI World Cup starting October 5 in India. However, the Pakistan Cricket Board also wants a second opinion on his injury. However, given the results of his scan in Dubai, it appears he will not be able to play for Pakistan all year round.
Showed a brilliant performance at the 2023 Asian Cup
We tell you that Naseem Shah played a total of four matches in the 2023 Asia Cup, including the group stage and the Super 4. He showed excellent bowling. He took seven wickets in four matches. Naseem Shah had also bowled brilliantly in both the games against India. But after a good start in the Super 4 match, he was injured towards the end. His injury became so serious that after the Asia Cup there was tension about his participation in the ODI World Cup. In addition, Haris Rauf had already been excluded from the Asia Cup as a precautionary measure in view of the upcoming ODI World Cup. The Pakistan team was eliminated from the race for the final after losing to India and then Sri Lanka in the Super 4.
Pakistan’s World Cup squad is yet to be announced
Ahead of the World Cup, the Pakistan cricket team is in a major dilemma. Pakistan has not yet announced the 15-member squad for the World Cup. There is excitement about Naseem’s game. Haris Rauf is also injured. Whatever decision is taken in such a situation will now cause a huge headache for Babar Azam and the team management. The World Cup match between Pakistan and India will take place on October 14 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. All eyes are on this game.
