Former Pakistan batsman Zaheer Abbas believes that the Misbah-ul-Haq-led young team can topple experienced Indian team, saying that handling pressure would be crucial to emerge as a winning side in the upcoming high-voltage World Cup clash against India on February 15 in Adelaide.
Abbas, who became the first batsman to score three successive ODI centuries against India in 1982-83, said that Pakistan could win if they handle the pressure well in view of the absence of Mohammad Hafeez and the team grappling with fitness issues, the Express Tribune reported.
Reflecting further on Pakistan World Cup squad, Abbas said that he hopes the team could find their team combination right as the injury list was growing day by day.
Abbas added that the first match was very crucial and it would be really a high voltage contest.
