Don't think the fans had any expectations from the 2016 T-20 WC squad or the 2021 T-20 WC squad as in both tournaments our team was terribly out of form and written off by pundits. Even the 2017 CT comes to mind where non of the tv experts even mentioned Pakistan as the favorites or even in contention for a semi final place and mind you we had just barely qualified for that tournament by whiskers.
But these teams atleast had some experienced players who were still in their prime and some fresh youngsters as well. I can't think of any positives about the T-20 squad going into the WC in the US, West Indies, too many players have been out of form for ages and have been playing purely on reputations, past performances and the youngsters in the form of Saim Ayub, Azam Khan have not delivered.
