‘India must play Usman Tariq safely’, says Harbhajan Singh:Legendary spinner predicts Men in Blue will beat Pakistan

Ahead of the high-voltage match between India and Pakistan in the T-20 World Cup, former cricketers have expressed confidence in Team India’s victory. Legendary spinner Harbhajan Singh believes that the Indian team is capable of defeating Pakistan; however, he has also advised Indian batters to be cautious of Pakistan’s spinner Usman Tariq. Meanwhile, former wicketkeeper Nayan Mongia said that Indian youngsters now play fearlessly and Pakistan will remain under psychological pressure due to continuous defeats. In a media interaction, Harbhajan Singh said that India’s team is strong and balanced, but it will be important to maintain patience and confidence during the match. He said, “India will win the match. Pakistan has a spinner (Usman Tariq), he is a good spinner, we have to play him safely. The Indian team is capable; it is a very good team. We hope they play the way they have always played, play without any pressure and wave the flag of victory.” Usman Tariq’s excellent form, controversy over action
Pakistan’s spinner Usman Tariq has been performing brilliantly in recent T20 matches. He has taken many wickets at a low average and created difficulties for opposing batsmen. However, some people have raised questions about his bowling action and there remains controversy over whether it complies with the rules. Nayan Mongia is also confident of India’s victory
Former Indian wicketkeeper Nayan Mongia has also expressed hope for India’s victory. He believes that the Indian team’s confidence is very high at present. Mongia said, ‘’This match will be exciting and we hope India will win. The way the team is batting and bowling, and the captain is leading from the front, clearly shows the team’s confidence. Pakistan has lost seven or eight times consecutively in ICC tournaments, so they will be under more pressure.” He also said that in modern cricket, the course of the match can change at any time. ‘’Cricket has changed a lot now. India’s young players have become fearless. One over, one four, or one six can turn the match around.” High Expectations from Hardik Pandya
Mongia has high expectations for an outstanding performance from all-rounder Hardik Pandya. Hardik has a good record against Pakistan and can play a crucial role for the team in pressure matches.
Overall, former players believe that if the Indian team plays their natural game without pressure and key players perform well, winning against Pakistan won’t be difficult.
