After finding themselves in a precarious situation post four losses on the go, Pakistan need a miracle to qualify. Former coach Saqlain Mushtaq’s old quote on how ‘Qudrat Ka Nizam’ (force of nature or system of power) can do anything in cricket went viral again as the fans hopes that all permuations and combinations helped Men in Green make it to the semi-finals. It is working too as so far the results have gone their way.
