Pakistan can still beat any team in world: Yasir Arafat

Pakistan all-rounder Yasir Arafat believes that his side can beat any team in the world even with average batting performance as they head into their World T20 campaign beginning on March 16 in Kolkata.

Pakistan displayed a disappointing batting display in the recently-concluded Asia Cup T20, where they suffered humiliating defeats at the hands of host Bangladesh and India.

Arafat is, however, adamant that Pakistan's chances of clinching the title cannot be written off,PakPassion.net reported.

The 33-year-old said his side has a good bowling attack at the moment, adding that they could do the job for the country even if the batsmen fail to deliver.

Arafat, however, admitted that if Pakistan continued to display the same brand of cricket as they had been performing recently then the result would be even worse in the World T20.

Arafat stressed that his side would face a tough pool in the T20 pinnacle event, and, therefore, called on his side to stay at their absolute best during the tournament.
