Pakistan Coach Blames 'Foreign Conditions' In India For Cricket World Cup Debacle

The babar Azam-led Pakistan cricket team is not having a good time at the Cricket World Cup. With only two wins in six matches, the 1992 Cricket World Cup champions, are on the brink of exit from the round-robin stage. Pakistan take on Bangladesh at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata in what is almost a must-win match. Ahead of the match, Pakistan's head coach Grant Bradburn blamed the "foreign conditions" in India and their lack of familiarity with the venues as the reason behind the debacle. With four straight defeats, Pakistan's semifinal hopes have been heavily dented. Nothing sort of a miracle will see the team through to the last four stage. They have to win their remaining three matches by big margins and hope that other teams' results also favoured them to have any chance of making it to the last-four stage.
