Pakistan’s Disappointing Exit from the T20 World Cup
Pakistan’s performance in the recent T20 World Cup was underwhelming as they were eliminated in the league stage with only two wins. Despite winning their last two matches, losses to the USA and India in their first two games sealed their fate, preventing them from advancing to the Super 8 round.
This early exit was particularly disappointing given the high expectations surrounding the team after the appointment of Gary Kirsten as the head coach of the Pakistan White Ball team just weeks before the tournament. Kirsten, who had previously led India to victory in the 2011 World Cup, was anticipated to bring a similar level of success to Pakistan.

Pakistan’s disappointing performance, including losses to the USA and India, has sparked discussions about the team’s dynamics and coaching strategies.
Language Barrier a Major Issue
Naseem Shah highlighted the difficulties faced by some players in understanding and communicating with foreign coaches like Gary Kirsten and the newly appointed Test coach, Jason Gillespie. He stated, “There is a language problem with foreign coaches. Some players understand, but others need someone to translate for them. It’s actually easier to communicate with a coach in your language, especially when discussing private matters.”
