Capable of Delivering Major Upsets
New Delhi: In this edition of the T20 World Cup, even the associate teams—previously considered underdogs—have delivered impressive performances. Nepal’s spirited display against England in their opening match clearly demonstrated their growing competitiveness. Similarly, India faced a strong challenge from the United States, while Pakistan encountered tough resistance from the Netherlands.
These performances underline the steady improvement in the standards of associate nations. It is now evident that no team can be taken lightly, as the competitive gap continues to narrow in international cricket.
