‘Couldn’t be more proud of my pack’: Twitter all praise for team Pakistan
Pakistan lost to England in the final of the T20 World Cup 2022 on Sunday at the Melbourne Cricket Ground after posting up a low total. England chased down Pakistan’s 137-8 with five wickets in hand and six balls to spare.
But despite the heartbreak, much support has been extended to the Pakistani team.
Babar Azam, the captain of Team Pakistan, tweeted, “Couldn’t be more proud of my pack.”
Alhumdulillah, couldn’t be more proud of my pack. You all fought like true warriors.

Credit to Pakistan. Few teams would have defended 137 the way they did. Best bowling team.

Pakistan’s bowling made a match of it…to be honest, only Pakistan could’ve stretched England this far. Outstanding bowling unit. #T20WorldCupFinal

The fact that it took a side like England 19 overs to chase 138 at the loss of 5 tells you everything about Pak’s bowling attack. They gave it their all. #T20WorldCupFinal
