Pakistan can beat India if they play to their potential, says Waqar Younis

”I honestly believe that Pakistan can beat India in their opening encounter if they play to their potential. It won’t be easy but we certainly have the personnel who can come good. It’s a big game and pressure will be on both teams as it will be their first match of the tournament. But the first few deliveries and runs will be crucial but if we are able to negotiate it well we can win the game,” Waqar stated while speaking to CricWick.

Bowling has always been the strength of the Pakistan cricket team. They always have pacers in their squad who have the ability to dismiss the batting units single-handedly. Waqar Younis was the bowling coach of the Pakistan team but he resigned from the position on the day of the announcement of the squad for the T20 World Cup. Reflecting on the quality of the Pakistan bowlers, Waqar Younis has said that bowling has always been the strength of the team and the bowlers have the capability to defend scores. He further added that Hasan Ali will lead the bowling unit.
