CWC 2023: 'Mystique' Around Pakistan Team, Says Coach Mickey Arthur

By AFP News October 05, 2023 • 19:58 PM View: 645

Pakistan coach Mickey Arthur believes there's a "bit of mystique" around his World Cup team as they make a first appearance in India for seven years. Pakistan arrived to a warm welcome in Hyderabad despite earlier fears that the bitter political rivalry between the two neighbours could force a boycott of the tournament.

Only two of the 15-man squad have ever visited India before and Arthur believes this has contributed to the curiosity surrounding the 1992 champions.
