Reasons of Pakistan's Defeat from India

Reasons of Pakistan's Defeat from India

On 15th February, there was a match played between Pakistan and India in Adelaide, New Zealand. This is the sixth time Pakistan and India goes face to face in the history of cricket World Cup. In the past, in all matches of World Cup, Pakistan never beat India. So this is for the sixth time, both countries people are crazy about this match, as all world knows the rivalry between Pakistan and India. Match conclusion is Pakistan again lost to India in ICC CWC 2015. The credit also goes to Indian cricket team who played very well in all departments. But as for as the Pakistani's team concerns, there are many reasons to me for this terrific lost of Pakistan:

1-   There is no need to send Younis khan in the opening, because he feels comfortable at playing at No. 3 or 4. He opens only few times for Pakistan in his entire career, his total opening score in his career is below 100, so this is the first wrong decision.

2-   In the past few years Pakistan failed to create fast bowlers like in the past it has. Now Pakistan's bowling attack is not that powerful, except in Test matches. All players in World Cup squad are young who have not much experience in the international cricket, so they prove expensive in spite of their performances, and most time they beaten badly by opposition.

3-   We have no experienced or permanent player behind the stumps. After Moeen Khan and Rashid Latif, we have nobody to save behind the stumps. Akmal Brothers never consistently played any role in wicket-keeping. In Pak-India match Umar Akmal drop a catch of Virat Kohli, which is the turning point of that match.

4-   Fielding is always the weakest department of Pakistan's team. In yesterday match, Pakistan dropped many catches as well as missed the stumps for run out. After having the international coaches for fielding, Pakistan never learned that much in fielding, so this is the major weak spot of Pakistan.

5-   Our bowlers, I think, never wear pads for bating in practice. Our bowlers doesn't resist at all in bating, so after 6 or 7 wicket, our bating line falls like rain. Pakistan should recover that too.

On the other hand Pakistan also have some good players(in my opinion there is only one) in team. Pakistan's captain, Misbah ul haq, always play and lift his team in crisis. In Pak-India match Misbah is the only player who is fighting for Pakistan. He never wanted to lose from India. But what he could do alone?  Cricket is always about team work. it is true that sometimes a single player can make a big difference, but it is sometimes. At the end, I think there is always the captain in the end who stood alone in front of opposition. We could only hope that Pakistan do well in the remaining tournament and bring some happiness and joy in country.
