Srinagar: Pakistan opening batter Imam ul Haq has said that like every other team, Pakistan also want to beat India in India during World Cup 2023.
“We had already started thinking about the 2023 World Cup during the 2019 World Cup. Everyone wants to beat India in India and perform well,” Imam said in an interview with a local TV channel.
“Our preparations for the upcoming World Cup are pretty good. We have formed a balanced side, which is playing regularly. We will get eight matches before the Asia Cup, which is adequate in my opinion,” he added.
Imam also said that competition for the opening position in the Pakistan team is good thing.
“The competition for the opening spot is a good thing for the side. When you see players come into the team with a new batting style, it improves your own performance. These youngsters bat with a fearless approach in PSL as well, which is great to see. It also helps us, who have been playing for six to seven years, realise that we need to improve our game,” he said.
