After getting a marvelous victory against England, Pakistan team is now more confident to break the World Cup jinx against Asian giants and arch rivals India. The whole Pakistani team is desperate to beat India in Adelaide ground on Sunday.
According to foreign media reports, Misbah-ul-Haq said that the jinx must end now. Pakistan has never succeeded a World Cup match against India in all five attempts since their first encounter in the 92 Cup also held in Australia and New Zealand. He said, “We will do our best to change history. I don't know why we lost all those games, maybe all those teams failed to handle the pressure in the key game”.
The all-rounder Shahid Afridi also showed a very confident gesture and said, “I am confident that this time we will change history and win this crucial game.” Afridi was captain in the 2011 World Cup, when they witnessed India’s victory in the semi-final at Mohali.
“If we win we will get a lift for the remainder of the World Cup and all the players and the team management is eager for the win,” he added.
The talented Pakistani batsman Younis Khan wished an ideal start in the ICC Cricket World Cup. He said, “We are playing India in the first game so it would be ideal if we beat them and get a kick start to the World Cup”.
One of the most dominant and tallest bowlers Mohammad Irfan is expecting to get key wickets against India, he said, “I have done well against India before so I am confident of doing well again.”
Sohail khan also remarked that he will not be frightened by the reputation of any of the India’s batsmen like Virat Kholi or anyone. However, fast bowler Wahab Riaz is expecting celebration in Pakistan on Sunday.
