Irfan Pathan selected 4 semi-finalist teams for the World Cup, did not include Pakistan

 

The Cricket World Cup is going to start from October 5 and before the start of this tournament, many former players have made big predictions and selected the four teams which according to them can play the semi-finals and final of the World Cup 2023. Former Indian team all-rounder Irfan Pathan has also been included in this list. Irfan Pathan has named those four teams which according to him will be strong contenders to become winners in the World Cup to be held in India.

While selecting the four best teams for the World Cup, Irfan chose India, South Africa, Australia and England. Irfan Pathan believes that South Africa can surprise everyone by performing brilliantly in the upcoming World Cup. Irfan said, 'Some people think that South Africa is not a good team. But I think they are a good team. He has two finishers. David Miller and Klassen. They are a good team and their bowling is also good. They also have a batsman who can bowl, Aiden Markram.

Let us tell you that while on one hand Irfan Pathan has called South Africa a big contender to win the World Cup, on the other hand he did not choose Pakistan while selecting four teams. Maybe Pakistani fans may not like this thing of Irfan, but after the poor performance of Pakistan team in the Asia Cup, now somewhere the weakness of their team has come in front of the world before the World Cup, on which they will have to work.

If we talk about the Indian team, then before the World Cup, India has proved itself to be a strong contender for the World Cup by winning the title of winner in the Asia Cup. At the same time, the South African team has also defeated Australia 3-2 in the ODI series before the World Cup, which is why their morale will also be at high levels. In such a situation, it will be very interesting to see how the performance of all these teams is in the World Cup.
