How to Win the T20 World Cup 2022 ?

By the looks of it there are no chances about this T20 series vs English team will provide any benefit for the Pakistani players in their preparation for the World Cup matches.

The main reason for the above apprehension was that our team management and captain are in no mood to accept their faults (our team’s score in the 6 power play overs was 37 runs with 19 dot balls out of 36 balls of power play in the final match, but no soul searching and planning is visible for overcoming this chronic weakness of our T20 openers) and the captain seems still NOT ready to take more risks, even when 8 English World Cup squad members will NOT be playing in the current series vs the Pakistani team.

Our team may not even reach to the semi finals stage of the World Cup, if our team management will prepare them for the T20 cricket of two decades old game.

Our team MUST aim 200+ runs against the Englishmen, if it bats first and must aim to bowl the opponent out in 15 overs, if we bowl first, considering that this is an extremely weak team of England and we must push the performance bar few stages upwards, to test our maximum limits of mental and physical strengths.
Napoleon Bonaparte said that “if you build an army of 100 lions and their leader is a dog, in any fight, the lions will die like a dog. BUT if you build an army of 100 dogs and their leader is a lion, all dogs will fight like a lion.”

Rest we should hope for the best, because in almost every high voltage T20 cricket match, generally the team which wins is the team which believes in the following maxim:“You were born to win, but to be a winner, you must plan to win, prepare to win and expect to win.”
