Pakistan on verge of becoming number one

26 Oct, 2017

Pakistan cricket team is just steps away to become the number one T20 team in the world.

The Pakistan team is currently ranked No. 2 in the ICC T20I rankings, if they manage to win all three matches the green shirts will come within a point of top-ranked New Zealand.

Pakistan have won nine of their 11 T20Is, under the leadership of Sarfraz Ahmed.

“It was highly satisfying to win 5-0 because all the players have done well in all three departments,” said Sarfraz during presser on Wednesday. “The best thing is that youngsters have done well and made an impact whenever they got a chance.”

Meanwhile, Pakistan would have the services of Mohammad Amir, who will be returning to the squad after sustaining injury in the Test series, adding impetus to the potent bowling attack.

“Yes, Amir will be back and that adds to our weapons in bowling,” said Sarfraz, who will miss T20 specialist Rumman Raees who was ruled out with an elbow injury.
