Beating India in T20 WC best moment of 2021: Babar

Pakistan captain Babar Azam has termed the jinx-breaking win over India in the T20 World Cup as the “best moment” for his team in the year gone by.

Babar said beating India for the fi rst time in a World Cup match was the high point for him in 2021. Pakistan defeated India by 10 wickets in the lopsided match.

“It was a fantastic achievement for us as a team because we had not been able to beat India in the World Cups for so many years. It was our best moment of the year,” he said. Summing up the year in a podcast released by the Pakistan Cricket Board on Friday, Babar said that losing to Australia in the semifi nal stage of the same event was most disappointing for the entire side.
