India vs Pakistan Live: Bradd Hogg says Pakistan might not go further, if loses to India, predicts semifinalists for T20 WC
Talking on his YouTube channel in a conversation with DeepDas Gupta, Bradd Hogg said that Pakistan might fight it difficult to get their campaign back on track if they lose to India. The Babar Azam-led side will face Kane Williamson-led New Zealand in their second outing just after a day’s break. On the other hand, India will have a six days break before they take on Afghanistan in their next assignment.
“If Pakistan get beaten by India in the first game, they’ve got a short turnaround to play New Zealand. I think that will be a huge factor on whether Pakistan go through or not. If Pakistan lose against India in the first game, I don’t think they will get through, India will get through. So watch that space,” Hogg said on his YouTube channel.
India, Pakistan, West Indies, and England in T20 WC Semi-final: Talking further about the four semi-finalists, Hogg however considered Babar Azam-led side to advance into the next round.
“The teams that I think are going to go to the semis are England and the West Indies from Group 1 and from Group 2, I think it’s going to be Pakistan and India,” Hogg added.
