'Is Pakistan's batting totally dependent on Babar Azam and Mohd Rizwan?', here's Pakistan captain's reply

Pakistan captain Babar Azam was a little annoyed when he was posed with a question about the Men in Green's inconsistent middle order. Babar faced the question during the press conference, a day before the mega cash between the arch-rivals, India and Pakistan. The irked skipper had a blunt response when a reporter asked him if the Pakistan batting is dependent totally on him and Mohd Rizwan.

'We will only find out on the day, you never know. It's a T20 match, on the day any player can surprise us. It's a short format, so any player can help us pull off a win. I have total belief in our team, and all the middle-order players as well. They have won us many matches and have performed well in tough times. So, as a captain, I totally believe in them. You never know, anything can happen, you got to be ready for everything', Babar said.

Pakistan and India will play their Super 12 match against each other on 23rd October in Melbourne in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022.
