Mohammad Amir gives valuable advice to Pakistan cricket team for their possible semi-final clash against Australia t20 world cup 2021. Pakistan has dominated the tournament so far as it has largely defeated teams like India and New Zealand in the Super 12 stage. Meanwhile, Australia finished second in Group 1, winning four out of five matches.
Amir claimed that Pakistan’s batsmen have failed to make proper use of the powerplay in the tournament so far as they were not at their best in the first six overs against Namibia.
“The mindset of teams, especially in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, is to post scores around 160 and to do that you need to take advantage of the powerplays. If you look at the match against Namibia, despite the fact that they didn’t have a world class bowler, Pakistan didn’t use the powerplay properly and tried to make up for it at the end of the innings,” Aamir said in his official statement. on youtube channel.

Amir warned the Pakistan team that the Australian bowlers would not allow them to score 60 runs in the last four overs and advised them to play aggressively with one ball.
“However, Australia will not let you do that. They will not give 60 runs in the last four overs, so Pakistan need to ensure that they play attacking cricket with the first ball. If you go into survival mode against the top sides at the start, they won’t give you the margin to return later in the match. We need to score at least 35-40 runs in the powerplays to score more than 160.”

Amir conceded that Australia are in good shape and they will be the real test for the Pakistan team as they will have to bring their A-game to the table in the semi-finals.
“Pakistan’s real test will begin now because, in my opinion, the only team that could have given Pakistan a tough time in the group stage was India as we know the conditions in UAE very well,” he added.
“Australia are playing some good cricket and Pakistan need to be on top of their game to beat them. chase [against West Indies] 160 for the loss of two wickets in 16 overs is no joke, that means they [Australia] Are in good rhythm,” he concluded.
