Amir Believes Pakistan Could Have Defeated India
Amir feels good about playing the main card for the team’s win. And he understands that certain things are not in the control of the players.
“It was good to contribute to the team’s first win. We players can do what is in our control. There is no point in thinking about the results of other teams for our Super 8 chances.
Amir said that Pakistan could win the match against India and the USA if they could capitalize on the early dismissals. The player believes that they will rectify the mistakes and do well in their final game against Ireland.
“We could have defeated India in a one-sided match as things were in our control, but we didn’t capitalize on their early dismissal. We allowed the game to drift away from us. The same thing happened against the United States of America.
“We came back into the game but couldn’t close it. Had we won those two games, the situation would have been different. However, we will have to take care of our last game in the tournament.”
Amir also admitted to keeping things simple against Canada by bowling in the right areas and setting up batters.
“The idea was to bowl in the right areas and set up batters. I kept things simple and got the reward.”
