More ticket pressure than match.

We have played against each other many times. We got a lot of support in Hyderabad and we expect the same for Ahmedabad.

Experience will help

I think we have an opportunity to perform well in front of the fans.

Pakistan is missing Naseem Shah

Talking about his plan, Babar said that we plan on the spot because the wicket is different in the first 10 overs and after 10 overs it is different. Therefore, we have to plan accordingly. We will miss Naseem Shah. Shaheen is our best bowler. We believe in him and he believes in himself. One or two matches with poor performance don’t bother us.

Pakistan has defeated India in T20 World Cup

Babar mentioned Pakistan’s T20 World Cup win against India and said that they will repeat it in the ODI World Cup in Ahmedabad. Babar said, ‘In 2021 we defeated India in the T20 World Cup. I think we can do the same here. I have not scored many runs in this World Cup so far and I hope that will change. If you want to perform well then you have to field well. We are working on it.’
