Shaheen and Haris Trained for T20 Crickrt, not ODIs - Muhammad Fahim - 11-14-2023
Pakistan's disappointing performance in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 saw them miss the semi-finals for the third consecutive time. Despite a strong start with two wins, a four-match losing streak dashed their hopes. Criticism arose due to perceived lack of intent and faulty game plans.
Former cricketer Aaqib Javed made a controversial statement, suggesting that bowlers Shaheen Shah Afridi and Haris Rauf were groomed for T20 cricket, leading to their struggles in the World Cup. This viewpoint faced backlash from media and journalists who anticipate a strong comeback from the duo.
Haris Rauf's record-breaking 533 runs conceded added to Pakistan's bowling concerns. Javed defended their T20 specialization, saying, "We brought them, trained them, and played them purely for the T20 format." Despite criticism, there's optimism that Haris and Shaheen will bounce back.
Pakistan's World Cup woes included five losses, a historic setback, with defeats against India, Australia, Afghanistan, and South Africa. The team now gears up for a series in Australia, playing three tests starting from December 6, aiming to rejuvenate and reclaim their cricketing stature. Changes are expected to be in the pipeline for Pakistan Cricket after this World Cup disaster.
