T20 WC: Afridi Out, Salman In As Pakistan Opt To Bat Against Namibia In Must Win Group A Game
T20 World Cup: Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat against Namibia in their Group A clash of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 on Wednesday at the Sinhalese Sports Club
Pakistan must defeat Namibia in their final league match to guarantee a qualification for the Super 8s. The pressure on Pakistan has increased after a heavy 61-run defeat to India, continuing a troubling pattern that also included losses in the Asia Cup and recent editions of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup.
Senior players Babar Azam and Shaheen Afridi have faced criticism for poor performances, with Shaheen struggling for control and Babar continuing to show vulnerability against spin. Captain Salman Agha and his side are now in a must-win situation to avoid elimination.
