Pakistan’s left-arm pacer Wahab Riaz believes that his country can definitely beat India in the T20 Worldcup 2021 if they played to their fullest potential. India and Pakistan haven’t been playing any bilateral series for a long time now with the political issues going on but they have been meeting in the ICC tournaments or the Asia cup.

The T20 Worldcup 2021 group stages will also feature India and Pakistan taking on each other on October 24 and the excitement has already started. Pakistan has never beaten India in any Worldcup game and they will be looking to break the streak in the upcoming fixture in the group stages.

Wahab Riaz Feels Pakistan Have The Ability To Beat Any Team In The World

Wahab Riaz mentioned that Pakistan has a lot of potential in the side which can certainly beat any team in the world and India will be no different. He added that the T20 format is unpredictable snd hence, added that Pakistan can stop India’s undefeated streak if they manage to play at their best.

“They definitely have the ability to achieve that result. If Pakistan plays to its potential, then they can beat any team in the world including India. Twenty20 cricket is such a format that the whole match can turn in the space of a few balls or even one incident and the Pakistan versus India match will be no different. If Pakistan play at their best, they can certainly beat India,” Wahab Riaz told in an interview
