Pakistan Must 'Catch Up' With India in T20 Cricket, Says Coach Hesson
Pakistan could face India in the knockout stage of the Asian Games, where India won gold as world champions in 2023.
Pakistan's cricket coach Hesson has said the team must catch up with India in T20 cricket, ahead of a competition in which the two sides could meet in the knockout stages.
The comments come with Pakistan potentially facing India at the Asian Games, where India previously won gold as reigning world champions in 2023. The prospect of a knockout-stage meeting between the two teams has drawn attention given their standing in the format and the broader rivalry between the two cricketing nations.
Hesson's remarks point to a gap he believes exists between the two teams' current level in T20 cricket, suggesting that closing that gap is a priority for Pakistan as they prepare for the tournament.
Further details on Pakistan's preparation and the tournament schedule were not specified in the available reporting.
