ICC World Cup 2023 Pakistan Team and Players: Cricket is a beloved sport in many parts of the world, the former territories of Britain like India, Pakistan, Australia and New Zealand. Cricket originated in England but has become more popular in India and Pakistan.
England won the ICC Cricket World Cup, the biggest tournament of the sport in 2019. India won it in 1983 and 2011 while Pakistan won the trophy in 1996. The two teams are on course to clash in the upcoming 2023 ICC World Cup as well.
India recently announced its full squad while Pakistan is expected to announce it soon. Fans are eagerly anticipating the names of players who will represent their home countries at the World Cup.
India will be under more pressure, as it’s hosting the World Cup and will be playing on home soil. Pakistan, however, is not to be underestimated. The team is ranked number 1 in ODI and is composed of some of the best fast bowlers and batsmen in the world. Pakistan is among the favourites to win the 2023 Cricket World Cup.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (ECB) is yet to announce the Pakistan World Cup squad. The last date to submit the players list is September 28, so the official squad announcement can drop anytime now.
Both India and Pakistan are currently engaged in the Asia Cup 2023 so based on that and the opinions of experts, we can predict the final 15-player World Cup squad of Pakistan.
