Harbhajan Singh terms Pakistan as an average ODI side

Article Published on 26 September, 2023

Former India cricketer Harbhajan Singh believes Pakistan are an average ODI side as they only play good cricket in T20Is.

While speaking on his YouTube channel, Harbhajan picked Australia, India, England and New Zealand to make it to the semi-finals of the upcoming World Cup set to be played in India.

"I hope the match is closely contested (India vs. Australia). Whoever wins the game will become favourites to win the World Cup," he said [as quoted by Cricket Pakistan].

"Australia is also one of the contenders for the World Cup semifinals, India is another contender for the top four spots, and England is also a contender."

According to him, Pakistan, despite being the top-ranked side in ODIs, will not do well in the upcoming tournament.

"For the remaining one spot, people are saying Pakistan could advance to the semifinals but in the 50-over format, they are just average," he said.

"They play good cricket in T20Is but my fourth pick would be New Zealand. (India, Australia, England, New Zealand) They are my four semifinalists for the World Cup."

The World Cup is set to be played between October 5 to November 19.
