Pakistan legend Waqar Younis believes Sarfaraz Ahmed & Co will be dangerous if they make it to the semi-finals of the ongoing ICC World Cup 2019. Pakistan have won their last three games on the trot to remain alive in the race for top four and they will be hoping a few results to go there way from here to salvage a spot in the knockout stages. The Men in Green will have to win their final league game against Bangladesh and hope England lose against New Zealand to go through.
“It is actually becoming quite scary at this point! Is history repeating itself? I have no idea but if Pakistan do make the semi-finals then they are going to be such a dangerous side. For that to happen they will need some results to go their way, but most importantly of all they will have to beat Bangladesh,” Waqar wrote in his column for ICC.
“To beat Bangladesh they will have to play better than they managed against Afghanistan. The win over Afghanistan on Sunday was not the performance of champions and yet, somehow and some way, they are still in contention for a semi-final spot and you can never write them off,” he added.
