Pakistan Cricket Team has had a topsy-turvy tournament so far as the team has won 2 matches out of 4. The team had suffered back-to-back defeats against India and Zimbabwe in which Virat Kohli had played a blinder of a knock whereas against Zimbabwe they got a reality check.

The Men in Green still have a slight chance of qualifying for the Semi-Finals after their brilliant performance against the mighty Proteas. They will have to make sure that they not only defeat Bangladesh but hope that Zimbabwe upset India on 6th November (Sunday).

Ahmed Shehzad On Virat Kohli

Ahmed Shehzad was seen in a interaction with Cricket Pakistan and was asked about his comparison with Virat Kohli. “Ye cheez bade against jaati hai. Jab aap comparison karte hain, do matches me hi aap pata nahi kahan se kahan leke chale jaate hain. Comparison ho hi nahi sakta, do different individuals hain, do different zindagi jee rahe hain. (The comparisons go against you. In the space of two matches, you start making exaggerated comparisons. It isn’t possible, because we are two different individuals, leading two different lives).” said Ahmed Shehzad.

Unki life different guzar rahi hai, Dhoni the unke paas, meri zindagi different scenario me hai. Main hamesha se kehta hu, do cheezein hoti hain jiss se aap cricket khelte ho, ek hota hai jab har insaan aapko support kar raha ho, ek hota hai jab har insaan aapko nikaalne ki koshish kar raha ho (His life is different. He had Dhoni, my life’s scenario was different. I’ve said this earlier, you can have two things – either you can have support from everyone, or when everyone is trying to keep you out).”  he added.

Conundrum for Management

The management would be well aware of the hitting prowess of Asif Ali. The team had dropped him as the batter hasn’t been able to play significant cameos for the team. The right-handed batter could feature against Bangladesh as he can provide some lusty blows.

The Men in Green would be well aware of the fact that Bangladesh would be fearless in its approach. The Bangladeshi Tigers don’t have a realistic chance of qualifying for the Semi-Finals. It won’t be wrong to say that it will be a contest between Bangladesh’s spinners vs Pakistan’s batters.
