Shehbaz Sharif, Maryam Nawaz pray for Pakistan win in match against India
LAHORE (Dunya News) – Pakistan Muslim League-N (PML-N) President Shehbaz Sharif and Vice President Maryam Nawaz prayed emotionally for Paksitan’s win in the ICC T20 World Cup match against India on Sunday.
Commenting on the clash of Pak-India, Opposition Leader in National Assembly Shehbaz Sharif said that today fans will find the biggest match in the field of cricket. He also wishes Pakistan cricket team good luck for match against India.
Expressing best wishes for the national team, Maryam Nawaz said that when Green Shirts will come into cricket field, then all the nations’ hearts will beat with them. She further hoped for good news regarding the match.
India and Pakistan will open their T20 World Cup campaigns with a Super 12 clash on Sunday (today) at the Dubai International Stadium.
The Virat Kohli-led side leads 5-0 in T20 World Cup. However, Kohli will be leading the team for the first time against Pakistan in the global tournament.
There’s no doubt that the contest between the sub-continental giants will attract global interest even beyond the cricket fraternity. But both teams, with face-offs becoming as rare as a hailstorm in the Emirates, have been trying their best to play down the pressure-cooker scenario associated with the game.
India are 12-0 in world cup cricket history and 5-0 in T20 world cups alone.
Virat Kohli, who has begun his final mission as Indian captain at T20 Cricket, said he and other members of the team see it as just another game. But he had to admit that he felt the elements around the match were different. “I just approached this game as another game of cricket and I know there’s a lot of hype around this game, more about ticket sales and ticket demand,” Kori said. Told the media last week.
Pakistan will participate in the tournament with the results of several seesaws. They defeated the West Indies 1-0 in the four-game T20I series, which was hit by the rain that washed away three games.
However, they were unable to play the five-game T20I series with New Zealand at home after losing 2-1 in England before that and New Zealand withdrawing from the tour at the last minute.
They hold most of their expectations on captain Babar Azam and wicket-keeper batter Mohammad Lizwan. Babal said he would not have in mind a record of no victory over India on Sunday. “Honestly, I don’t want to focus on the past. I’m looking forward to this World Cup. We will focus on our strengths and abilities and apply it on the day,” said the Pakistani captain.
