Aaron Jones and Harmeet failed to hit even a single boundary and yet they managed to score 18 runs from the super-over. Instead of Netravalkar, Amir should have been declared as the MoM.

They actually got boundary off the first ball, then it was all sloppy fielding and poor bowling.

Pakistan looked under pressure from ball one. It was a poor delivery to start with, and then it was all too easy for the USA because of average bowling and poor fielding. Amir with so much experience in T20 cricket, gave extras in the super over which was equally supported by sloppy wicketkeeping by Rizwan. I still wonder why Fakhar Zaman hasn't faced the first delivery of the super over. Iftakhar looked uncomfortable even in the first inning against the left-arm pacer. Poor decision-making and sloppy fielding cost Pakistan the match.

Today the captain of the Pakistan team, the one and only Babar Azam didn’t play well as he could because first of all the pitch condition wasn’t good for the batsmen and the second was that at first Muhammad Rizwan was out quickly, then the wickets were kept falling and he could not find a partner.

If he made less score than inside this period he has no mistake on it because I have been explaining it to you that when he sees wickets falling at the other end, the pressure mounts on him. When he got Shadab Khan and Iftikhar then if you see him, he was playing with more ease and comfort when from one end these two batsmen scored as well, and from one end, he was scoring too.

The hesitant batting of captain Babar Azam was a microcosm of the problems facing the team

Pakistan's self-doubt and uncertainty clear for all to see
