Pakistan vs USA Twenty20 World Cup 2026

 


Pakistan after defeating USA by 32 runs are definitely in with a great chance of reaching the super eights part of the competition. They now need to beat either India or Namibia in order to reach the super eights part of the competition. They will most probably beat Namibia and might lose to India.

Sahibzada Farhan was in great form in this match alongwith Babar Azam. Infact Sahibzada Farhan played a match winning innings. In bowling Usman Tariq was brilliant taking 3 wickets for 27 runs with his unique action. 

If Pakistan continue to bat like this they definitely become favourites for the tournament title and who knows they might defeat even the mighty Indians along the way.

In the end what I would like to say is that Pakistan took revenge from USA for defeating them in super over in Twenty20 World Cup 2024 in USA.

Pakistan vs Netherlands World Cup Twenty20 2026

 

Pakistan beat Netherlands in a thriller by 3 wickets with Faheem Ashraf saving them. If it wasnt for Faheem Ashraf's innings Pakistan would have lost this match and wouldnt have got over the line against the Netherlands.
Babar Azam and Muhammad Nawaz played slow innings which left Pakistan in a hole untill Faheem Ashraf rescued them. 
In bowling Abrar Ahmed and Muhammad Nawaz bowled economically to restrict Netherlands to a below par total of 147. Then Sahibzada Farhan played a substantial innings before Faheem ashraf's heroics.
In the end what I would like to say is that Pakistan need to drastically improve their performance if they stand any chance against USA on 10th february.

Pakistan's chances in the Twenty20 World Cup 2026

 


Pakistan has more than average chances of reaching the semi finals and perhaps if luck favours them win the World Cup in India and Sri Lanka 2026. All of Pakistan's matches will be played in Sri Lanka which will boost Pakistan's chances as the conditions suit them and they wont have to travel much.

Babar Azam is a world class batsmen in the Pakistani batting line up. Both Saim Ayub and Salman Ali Agha at the top of the order are in great form. They have world class all rounders in Mohammad Nawaz, Shadab Khan and Faheem Ashraf. They have some of the fastest bowlers in the world in Shaheen Afridi and Naseem Shah. They have mystery and world class spinners in Abrar Ahmad and Usman Tariq. Hence Pakistan is looking like a world class and dangerous side.

This time Pakistan shouldnt have any problems in beating USA unlike in the previous twenty20 World Cup in 2024 which was held in West Indies and USA and they should easily make it to the super eights part of the competition.

In the end what I would like to say is that after white washing Australia 3-0 at home Pakistan's chances of winning the twenty20 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka 2026 are looking bright.

Pakistan win the series 3-0 against Australia twenty20 internationals 2026

 


Pakistan whitewashed Australia 3-0 in the Twenty20 Series played in Lahore 2026. This result came as a surprise as Pakistan looked pretty ordinary after the 3rd Twenty20 international which was reduced to 12 overs a side against Sri Lanka.

Everything is going in Pakistan's favour and they look confident going into the Twenty20 World Cup to be held in Sri Lanka and India in February-March 2026. Pakistan team is in great form going into this world cup and they hold the aces. 

Babar Azam is back in form which is a great sign for Pakistan cricket team. In batting Saim Ayub and Salman Ali Agha are in form while in Shadab Khan they have an allrounder who is equally good with both bat and ball. 

In the end what I would like to say is that after this series whitewash of Australia Pakistan appear to be one of the favourites for the World Cup in 2026 in India and Sri Lanka.

Pakistan vs Australia 1st Twenty20 International 2026

 


Pakistan defeated Australia in the first twenty20 international by 22 runs. This was Pakistan's first twenty20  international win against Australia  in 7 years. Saim Ayub performed brilliantly with both bat and ball to ensure Pakistan's win. Salman Ali Agha is also making useful contributions with the bat at no.3.

Having said that Australia have come with an under strength team they still possess a lot of challenge to this Pakistani team. In Travis Head they have a wonderful swashbuckling opener and a great spinner in Adam Zampa in bowling so if others can contribute then Australia stand a good chance of defeating us even with this team.

In the end what I would like to say is that Pakistan need to improve their middle order batting if they have any chance of defeating strong teams like Australia.

Australia tour of Pakistan 2026

 


Pakistan will host Australia for three twenty20 internationals in january and February 2026 at Lahore. Although Australia always start as favourites against Pakistan in any series and in any format of the game it is hard to predict who will win this series this time as Australia and Pakistan are pretty evenly matched this time.


Pakistan are at full strength this time with Babar Azam coming back into the side after missing the tour of Sri lanka. Shaheen Afridi is also returning to the side so not only our batting will be boosted but our bowling will be boosted too with the return of these two stalwarts.


This series will serve as a catalyst to what would happen in the twenty20 World Cup in 2026 in febuary in Sri Lanka and India and would determine who are favourites for the World cup twenty20 2026.


In the end what i would like to say is that Pakistan are the home nation for this twenty20 series and they should fully utilize the home conditions.

Muhammad Hafeez a reliable all rounder

 

 

Muhammad Hafeez was a reliable all rounder and equally as effective with bat as with the ball. He captained Pakistan to a twenty20 World Cup semi final spot in 2012 held in Sri Lanka only to lose to Sri Lanka in the semi final. He was also part of the playing 11 in the Champions Trophy win of Pakistan in 2017.

Muhammad Hafeez would often make solid starts at the top order and see off the new ball. He also made his runs at a decent strike rate. His off spinners were very effective particularly in the 2011 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka where Pakistan reached the semi finals. In that World Cup his bowling partnership with Saeed Ajmal proved to be very effective.

Although Muhammad Hafeez was a mainly white ball player his contributions in test cricket cannot go unnoticed. In Pakistan - England test series in 2012 in UAE his constant dismissals of England openers in that series resulted in Pakistan whitewashing England 3-0 in that series.

In the end what I would like to say is that people used to underestimate Muhammad Hafeez's talent as a player.
