Well the overwhelming favourites for the trination series twenty20 tournament is not Pakistan but Afghanistan. Afghanistan is a dangerous side given that they were one of the semi finalists in last year's twenty20 world cup in 2024 and they are in form as compared to Pakistan and UAE. Afghanistan have a dangerous bowling line up with spinners like Rashid Khan, Mujeeb ur Rahman, and Mohammad Nabi. In fast bowling they have Fazal ul Haq Farooqi and in batting they have swashbuckling opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz.
Pakistan on the otherhand couldnt defeat Bangladesh in their home conditions losing to Bangladesh 2-1 a side that just recently lost to UAE 2-1. Also Sharjah pitches suit Afghanistan more than they suit Pakistan. Pakistan's batting is unreliable and their bowlers do have an off day from time to time. I hope they dont miss Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan in their batting.
In the end what I would like to say is that not only Afghanistan but even UAE will prove to be tough opponents for Pakistan.
