T20 World Cup 2024: According to former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh, when India face Pakistan in the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024, it will be a tough time for them, as both the countries do not play against each other much at the international level. There is less than a month left for the high-profile 2024 T20 World Cup match between India and Pakistan on June 9 at the newly constructed Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York.
PAK team will become a threat to India!
In the T20 World Cup, India has won 6 times in the 7 matches between these two teams. The two teams last met at the international level in the T20 World Cup in October 2022 inside the Melbourne Cricket Ground. In this match, thanks to Virat Kohli's inning of 82 runs, India achieved a thrilling victory over Pakistan by four wickets. Harbhajan Singh said, it is always difficult to play against Pakistan because both the countries do not play against each other. We don't know much about their strong and weak sides but Indian team management keeps an eye on each player and their strong players and weak area.
Harbhajan gave a big reason
Harbhajan said, 'Pakistan bowlers keep themselves mentally and physically strong in the bowling department also. The Indian team will keep this aspect in mind. These things will come to light when both the sides fight on the field. How the New York pitch will handle Pakistan's performance is also a challenge for India, but Harbhajan believes it will be important for the Indian team to be more aware of their game and take decisions based on the ground conditions.
It is important to take big decisions in the match
Harbhajan Singh said, 'It also depends on what decision you take on that particular day. You know Virat Kohli plays the cover drive beautifully, but the bowler still stops it in that area to take the outside edge at slip. You have to take advantage of this opportunity as per the situation. It is not important how much you know about your opponent, but how much you know about your own game and everything else is fundamental.'
