Amidst the T20 World Cup 2026, former Pakistan fast bowler Mohammad Aamir is once again in the news for his statement. In a TV show, he has made a new prediction about the Indian team. Aamir says that India will not reach the final this time and may lose the semi-final against England.
In fact, even before this, Aamir had claimed that India would lose to West Indies in the Super-8 stage and would not be able to make it to the semi-finals. However, the Indian team has proved the opposite on the field. By defeating West Indies, India made it to the last four and Aamir’s prediction proved wrong.
then repeated the prediction
Now before the semi-finals, Aamir has given another statement. He believes that the Indian team is also not able to play “complete cricket” at this time. He said that except Jasprit Bumrah, other bowlers do not seem to be in rhythm. He also raised questions on Indian batting and said that the team seems to be under pressure in every match.
However, Indian fans are not taking this statement of Aamir very seriously. Many users on social media are reminding that his previous prediction also proved wrong.
Old story of India-England
The semi-final match between India and England will be played on March 5 at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. This is the third consecutive time when both the teams will face each other in the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup.
In the 2022 T20 World Cup, England had defeated India by 10 wickets, but in 2024, Team India made a strong comeback and proved its credibility by defeating England by 68 runs in the semi-finals. Now the same contest is being repeated once again in 2026.
Will history change?
This time the command of the Indian team is in the hands of Suryakumar, while the England team will take the field under the leadership of Harry Brook. The match between the two teams is expected to be very exciting. Now it remains to be seen whether Aamir’s new prediction proves correct or the Indian team once again proves the critics wrong. At present, the eyes of cricket lovers are fixed on the semi-final match, where the real answer will be found on the field.
