Pakistan middle-order batter Hasan Nawaz has shared a meaningful post following the national side’s crushing defeat to India on Sunday in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026.
A day earlier, Pakistan were completely outplayed by their bitter rivals, India, in a high-stakes mega-event clash.
The Men in Blue handed Green Shirt a 61-run defeat to extend their winning record to nine wins in the T20 World Cups.
Hasan, 23, is not part of Pakistan’s T20 World Cup squad and was left out of the team’s plans after the conclusion of the home series against South Africa in November 2025.
The right-hander took to social media account and shared a reflective message, posting a picture from Pakistan’s tour of the West Indies with the caption “Trust the process.”
His last T20I appearance came against South Africa on November 1 in Faisalabad.
