Once a champion is always on the verge of getting the cup back home, Pakistan is willing to get back to the path of victory with that perspective. According to the stats, the Pakistani opening duo has been prolific in their 2021 campaign. However, whether their subsequent middle order goes out there for the expected support is still a question to be answered on the pitch.

Batting Lineup

Since he arrived in 2016, Babar Azam, the current Pakistani Captain, has been on the rise when considered within the new age batsman across formats. Following him, the opening pairing of Fakhar Zaman (Left Hand) and Mohammad Rizwan (Right Hand) could be the most significant impact if they could sustain their guard for wickets, with Rizwan himself responsible for keeping the wicket.

Now coming to the weakest link within the batting line, the middle order - Asif Ali and Haider Ali could string the run rate if the former could pull his cameo roles performances and Haider Ali makes the most out of his aggression showcased in 256 runs in 15 matches. 

Bowling Lineup 

Starting with the Vice - 

Captain Shadab Khan is the game changer with his Leg Spinning contribution, integral towards the bowling backline, which has a lot to contribute - Haris Raufs 150kmph fast bowling is sensational with a particular wicket-taking celebration keeping the Pakistani heritage alive. Hasan Ali had a successful ICC Champions Trophy campaign in 2017, providing grandeur motivation for the spinners and all-rounders. Lets not ignore the complimentary lineup now - Mohammad Wasim (Medium Pace), Mohammad Nawaz (Spinner), Mohammad Hafeez (Off Spinner), Imad Wasim (Spinner) and Haris Rauf (Right arm fast bowler).
