Listen to Story One part of the world, on June 7, Friday woke up to one of the biggest upsets in cricket history. USA, a team filled with stars looking to make an impression on the global stage, had upstaged former champions Pakistan in the T20 World Cup. Clinical performances in all departments saw Monank Patel and his team pull off the win and pile on the misery on Pakistan.
Babar Azam and his men looked all over the place with the bat as the skipper's slow innings sort of set the pace for the entire game for them. With the ball, there were some bright moments as USA were forced to dig deep and push the game into a super over. Mohammad Amir took the ball but ended up conceding 18 runs.
There was only one boundary in that over and the rest came from extras and some smart running between the wickets.

So, what really happened to the Pakistan team? Why did the finalist from the last edition have such an embarrassing performance? Mohammad Hafeez seems to have given his take on the matter as the former Pakistan all-rounder dissected the loss in fine fashion on PTV Sports.
Hafeez started with praising USA for the win and quickly turned his attention towards Pakistan. He felt that USA had defeated Pakistan twice in a day. The former cricketer said he couldn't understan.
