With Pakistan grouped alongside cricketing giants like India, as well as Ireland, Canada, and co-hosts the United States, the road to victory promises to be both challenging and exhilarating. To fine-tune their skills and strategies, the Pakistan squad is set to embark on a rigorous series of T20Is, starting with a showdown in Ireland, scheduled to commence tomorrow.
