Finally we are back online with #PodcastChowk 7th Episode after a month long break! Please accept our sincere apologies, most of our team members were on a leave. In the episode we reflected upon #Pakistanteam clinical run in the #WCT20, pretty unreal given our circumstances. Before starting the tournament our chairman got changed, coaches sacked or resigned, New Zealand & England cancelled their tours which led to Pakistan missing out important T20's & the team selection drama. Despite all the chaos, Babarazam's XI (he played the same team throughout the tournament) topped the group stage without dropping a game. Interestingly in all 5 matches we had a different Man of the match (Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, Asif Ali, Rizwan, Shoaib Malik ), literally ALL THE CREDIT GOES TO THE BOYS. Pakistan will lock horns against Australia in the semi-final. Cheers!
