Pakistan is one of the most consistent teams led by skipper Babar Azam. The dynamics of the side has changed in recent times and the skipper along with his new side are hungry to compete at the highest level to win titles.
Moreover, Pakistan have groomed few players that have flourished into becoming some of the best players in the world. Mohammad Rizwan and Babar at the top of the batting order have been impeccable and opposition teams will find it tricky to get them off the pitch. Pakistan plays team India in their very first match in a fixture that will prove to be fireworks and fans will be excited to see what transpires. Furthermore, it was Azam’s Pakistan that comfortably won the same fixture last year on the very same stage with a 10-wicket victory thus helping them end the unbeaten streak in T20 World Cup against India.

However, the team is on the cusp of finding its core team with balance that will help them in the long run in the tournament. While the T20 World Cup Schedule for all the sides comes thick and fast, all the sides will need to be on their toes to perform at the highest level if they wish to progress any further than group stages.
