'With the conditions in mind, it is hard to look past Pakistan'

DUBAI: Former Pakistan spinner Sana Mir has said that it will be hard to look past Pakistan with regards to the conditions in mind. She added that she liked the way England and West Indies are shaping up for the tournament while India and New Zealand are dangerous sides. The men's T20 World Cup starts from October 17 in Muscat and ends on November 14 in Dubai.

"T20 cricket is so unpredictable and it is almost impossible to pick a winner, especially with squads changing all the time. But with the conditions in mind, it is hard to look past Pakistan. They know UAE so well of course and became one of the best teams in the world while playing there, so I'm not just following my heart in predicting a good tournament for them. My head says the same thing," wrote Sana in her column for the ICC on Friday. IANS
