Pakistan are flying high in the ongoing 20-20 World Cup having defeated tournament favourites India and New Zealand comprehensively in the Super 12s. The team has displayed a solid all-round show to outclass their opponents. In the first game, they crushed India by 10 wickets, ending their 12-game losing steak against their arch-rivals in global events before beating New Zealand by 5 wickets

From the other Group, England are rampaging ahead after two back to back wins over West Indies and Bangladesh. England bowlers are breathing fire and skittled West Indies and Bangladesh to 55 and 124 respectively in their two games.

Former India cricketer Wasim Jaffer was mighty impressed with England's performance and said  the Three Lions are looking good to win the 20-20 World Cup. Tagging Michael Vaughan, Jaffer posted a tweet that read, "Another clinical win by @ECB_cricket. They look so strong at the moment. England favourites to win the cup @MichaelVaughan? #EngvsBan #T20WorldCup2021

However, Michael Vaughan does not agree with the same and feels that Pakistan are favourites to win after their emphatic win over India. Replying to Wasim Jaffer’s tweet, Vaughan said, "Pakistan after they hammered the outright favourites India Wasim "

Meanwhile, another title contender India will face New Zealand in a very crucial game. The team that wins in the game will most likely qualify along with Pakistan in Group B. Group A, however, is still wide open.
