\u201cAfter failure in World Cup, we can\u2019t claim that we wield strong batting, bowling,\u201d says wicket-keeper
\nPESHAWAR
\nAdmitting the shortcomings, opening batter Mohammad Rizwan said Tuesday the Pakistan cricket team deserved criticism over dismal performance in the T20 World Cup 2024.
\n\u201cAfter the poor show, we deserve criticism. Those who can\u2019t face the flak, cannot succeed,\u201d the right-handed batsman said talking to media in Peshawar.
\nHe said there was no single reason behind a team\u2019s defeat. There were multiple \u201cweaknesses\u201d which led to Pakistan\u2019s early exit from the tournament, he maintained.
\nIt should be noted that Pakistan exited from the T20 World Cup at the group stage which drew criticism from fans, analysts and cricketers alike, as they suffered defeat at the hands of minnows US as well.
\nRizwan said it was disappointing for the team members as well as they could not fulfill the nation\u2019s dreams. After the T20 World Cup debacle, the Green Shirts could not claim that they wielded strong batting and bowling, he added.
\nOn grouping, he said the speculations about bias in the team were not true as they all played for the green flag.
\nOn Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi\u2019s remarks of need for \u201cmajor surgery\u201d in Pakistan team, the right-handed batsman said, \u201cWhen you get ill, you get a surgery. He\u2019s chairman of the board and it is his right. It\u2019s his right whom he wants to retain and whom not.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
