Here is how Pakistan can qualify for ICC World Cup 2023 semi-finals
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterLinkedinWhatsapp

Pakistan has faced three consecutive defeats in the ICC World Cup 2023, making their path to the semi-finals quite challenging. They started well by winning their first two games against the Netherlands and Sri Lanka but were then defeated by India, Australia, and Afghanistan.

This leaves them with only four points from five matches. Now, Pakistan must win all their upcoming games against South Africa, Bangladesh, New Zealand, and England to have a chance at qualifying for the semi-finals.

It’s surprising to see Pakistan, once considered a top team, struggling in this tournament. The loss to India in Ahmedabad was expected, but it appears that they haven’t recovered from that massive defeat, and the loss to Australia made things worse.

Against Australia, Pakistan’s bowling had two extremes. They bowled 152 dot balls but conceded a massive 367 runs in 50 overs. This inconsistency in their bowling is a problem. They seem to be either exceptional or very poor, with no middle ground.

One issue is the lack of planning and creativity in their approach. Just a few months ago, Pakistan was known for having the world’s best bowling attack, but now it’s nowhere near that level. Blaming it all on Naseem Shah’s absence is not fair; the entire bowling unit needs to improve their situational awareness.

Former captain Wasim Akram pointed out that Pakistani players are not showing much interest in first-class cricket, which affects their performance in ODIs. Babar Azam is also dealing with a lack of commitment from his teammates on the field. Dropped catches and poor fielding during games have raised concerns about the team’s fitness and attitude.

The fielding has been so bad that it’s been compared to a local club team. The players lack energy and effort, appearing lethargic throughout the matches.

It’s time for the coaching staff and captain, including Mickey Arthur, Grant Bradburn, and Babar Azam, to rethink their strategy. Pakistan still has a chance in the tournament, but they need to adopt a more proactive and aggressive approach, known as the “Pakistan Way,” rather than relying on traditional methods that leave them dependent on uncertain outcomes.

While it may be late, there’s still time for Pakistan’s management to regroup and make necessary changes to improve their performance in the remaining matches of the World Cup.
