Pakistan Captain Babar said we will not point fingers at each other
Despite Pakistan's flying start in this year's T20 World Cup, they lost to Australia in the semi-finals. Batting for 177 runs, Australia snatched the victory by 5 wickets with 1 over in hand. Both teams have fought to the best of their ability.
A day after the game, the Pakistan cricket team's dressing room video was uploaded from the PCB Twitter account. It shows Pakistan captain Babar Azam and then batting consultant Matthew Hayden addressing the players.
What said Babar Azam in the video
In the video, Babar Azam is heard saying, "Everyone is feeling pain. Where we made mistakes and where we should have done better, no one will catch us, we know. But we have to learn from it. We played as a team and it shouldn't be broken, we made it with a lot of effort.
He said that none of us should point the finger at anyone who has done this and has not done that. We will learn from this and not repeat mistakes in the future. I tell you, this bond should not be broken just for the sake of defeat. Now is the time to help each other.
Batting consultant Matthew Hayden also praised the players for their "courage" after Babur's remarks. "We all tried our best to do what we could," he said. There is nothing left to do on the field and we should all be proud.
