The Pakistan cricket team is renowned for its unpredictability. They could emerge as underdogs in the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024 or disappoint their fans. Pakistan was the last team to announce their squad for the grand tournament, with some players making their comeback under the leadership of Babar Azam.
The team in green is preparing very hard for the T20 World Cup. After playing series against Ireland and New Zealand, they will now take on the defending champions in a three-match series starting on June 25 at Edgbaston Stadium.
