In response to a question, he said that you should completely remove the performance of the last two series from your mind. Many experiments are happening now, but in the World Cup, I think the Pakistani team will always emerge as a powerful team.

Misbah said that America’s ground and weather are also such that Pakistan can reach the semi-finals and finals and win the World Cup.

The former captain said that the team should prepare well and believe in themselves, formulate a strategy, in this context fitness is very important and further performance depends on it.

Misbah said that he thinks that in the matches that will be held by the Pakistan team, the team should prepare fully keeping the World Cup in mind and build confidence in themselves.

He said that Pakistan team also has many resources on the basis of which they can perform well. In response to a question, Misbah-ul-Haq said that we have top-class bowling and top-class batsmen, but all you need now is a strong performance.

The former captain said that Babar Azam is the best batsman in the world while Naseem Shah, one of the best fast bowlers in the world and Shaheen Shah Afridi are also part of the team. The all-rounders are also great, but it remains to be seen how we perform as a team.

Regarding the visit to America, he said that Houston is having a lot of fun, it seems like we are in Karachi. The people here are full of enthusiasm and enthusiasm and the warmth with which they welcomed us is indescribable.

He said that in the future also the Pakistan team will come here in the same way, so they will get a chance to come out of Pakistan and meet the Pakistanis and spend happy moments with them.

On the other hand, Younis Khan, the captain of Pakistan’s T20 World Cup winning team, said that preparations for the World Cup are underway in America and he will advise the Pakistani cricket team on the brand of cricket they should play if they play this way. If we do, our team can go to the semi-finals and finals as well.

Former captain Younis Khan said that if you observe the last World Cup, it is seen that the Pakistani team is the only team and it happened earlier that the Pakistani team was nowhere to be seen but suddenly it reached the final.

He said that our team has a very good chance of winning the World Cup on American soil and the way I see in the USA, the fan following that we have before, we thought that maybe it is not the case in America, but what I have I have been seeing for five years that the Pakistani team cannot get the kind of opportunities that are available in America.

Younis Khan said that if our team plays for its followers in Pakistan and America, then the Pakistani team can perform very well in the World Cup.

He advised the Pakistani team and said that the team should not play cricket. Be it bowling, batting or fielding, if he comes forward aggressively, he can do a lot for the team.

Regarding the visit to America, he said that my visit to America was a good experience, I wish I was playing in the Pakistani cricket team at that time and it would have been much more fun if I had come here with the team for Pakistan.

“I see that it has been six years since I retired after 2017 but the attention that has been received here is indescribable, so our players should come to America, especially the cricketers,” he said.

Younis Khan said that it is a matter of honor for me that it has been six years since I retired and it is a matter of honor for me that even after six years I am here so it seems that I am still in the Pakistan team. .
