“Credit to team.” Babar Azam Credits Team Effort for Crucial Victory Against Canada

Another exciting day has ended of the T20 World Cup. In the 22nd match of the T20 World Cup, Pakistan, and Canada locked horns at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. The match was special for Pakistan as they registered their first win in this edition of the tournament. Pakistan registered a 7-wicket win over Canada. After the long-awaited win, Pakistan captain Babar Azam reflected on their performance in this match. 

Pakistan’s Bowling Excellence:

The ongoing edition of this tournament was started on a disappointing note for Pakistan. In the last game, they lost the match while chasing a low total. But from that end, Pakistan fought back against Canada. While bowling first, the Pakistani bowlers set the stage on fire. Mohammad Amir and Haris Rauf took charge of the bowling attack and  Naseem Shah and Shaheen Afridi backed up. Amir and Rauf secured two wickets each and Rauf secured 2 wickets each. They restricted Canada to 106 runs. 

While chasing the target, Pakistan lost their first wicket early. Saim Ayub was dismissed on 6 runs in 12 balls. But Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan led the way. Babar played a knock of 33 runs in 33 balls on a very crucial point. Rizwan delivered a match-winning performance. He completed his half-century and played an unbeaten knock of 53 runs in 53 balls. They reached the winning total on the 18th over and won the match by 7-wicket. 

Babar Azam’s Words:

As the team started the tournament with consecutive setbacks, the match against Canada was crucial for them. In that win, they registered their long-desired win by an ultimate team game. After winning the match, Babar Azam said, “ Good for us. We needed this win. Credit to team. We started well and took wickets with the new ball. We had NRR on the back of the mind. The first six overs are very crucial here. You assess after 6 overs. Then we tried to take on the spinners.”

After winning this match, they have their qualifying hope for the Super-8 alive. The next matches are even more crucial for them. While focusing on the next goals, he said, “We are going to go with the same mindset. The conditions at Florida should be better from here as well. I got out to the same shot. So, I was angry. I still try my level best.”
