The Pakistan cricket team had a tough time at the T20 World Cup 2024, bowing out in the group stage. Speculations followed about team rifts and match-fixing allegations, but Test captain Shan Masood refuted such claims, emphasizing the integrity of his fellow cricketers. Masood also lauded Olympic gold medalist Arshad Nadeem as a national hero during a press conference, highlighting the inspiration his success brings to the team.
Looking ahead, Masood expressed optimism for Pakistan’s Test series against Bangladesh, aiming to learn from Nadeem’s triumph and strive for more victories. Despite a modest record in the World Test Championship, Pakistan’s upcoming matches against England, West Indies, and South Africa offer a chance to climb the rankings and potentially secure a WTC final spot with a strong finish.
