The star player from India selected four teams that he believes will advance to the ongoing T20 World Cup semifinals. It’s interesting to note that Pakistan was cut.
The current T20 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates and the West Indies is now taking place. India’s Ravichandran Ashwin has selected four teams he believes will advance to the semi-finals. It’s interesting to note that Ashwin did not include 2009 winners Pakistan, who finished second in the previous campaign, in his squads. England, Australia, West Indies, and India were favored by the off-spinner from India to advance to the T20 mega event’s semi-finals. With the help of a humorous, viral social media video, he revealed his choice.
Which of these video-bombed decisions do you agree with?

Pakistan lost their opening match against the United States in Dallas on June 6, which has left them with the worst start in T20 World Cup history. After both sides’ scores were level at the completion of the 40 overs of play, the match’s outcome was determined in the Super Over.
After being invited to bat first, Pakistan amassed 159 for 7, with Babar scoring 44 off 43.
After Pakistan reached 26 for 3 in 4.4 overs, Babar and Shadab Khan struck a 72-run partnership to save the side. In addition, Shaheen Afridi’s 23 not out of 16 was vital in leading Pakistan to a respectable total. The best bowler was Nosthush Kenjige, who finished with figures of 3 for 30 in four overs.
After 20 overs, USA reached 159 for 3, having chased a goal of 160. Nitish Kumar hit a four-ball to send the game to Super Over with the hosts needing five runs to win off the last ball.
Pakistan finished the Super Over with 13 runs after the USA set a target of 19 runs for them.
