[Watch] Hyderabad fans show their support to Pakistan team during warm-up matches ahead of World Cup

Pakistan cricket team received love from fans during the 2023 World Cup warm-up matches in Hyderabad over the past week. This is their first visit to India in seven years, as they last came to the country in 2016 for the T20 World Cup.

Pakistan have set up their camp in Hyderabad, where they played two warm-up games against New Zealand and Australia ahead of the mega event. They ended up on the losing side in both games, but a few players performed well and got acquainted with the conditions in India.

The Men in Green faced Australia on Tuesday, October 3, in a practice match at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. Australia notched up a mammoth total of 351/7 in the first innings. Pakistan's ace pacer Haris Rauf endured a tough day at the office, conceding 97 runs in his 9-over spell.

The batting unit put on a better show and were bowled out for 337 runs. Babar Azam (90), Iftikhar Ahmed (83), and Mohammad Nawaz (50) had decent outings with the bat.

Fans in the stands showed their support for Pakistani players throughout the match. PCB took to their official X handle and shared a video to give a glimpse of it to everyone. You can watch it below:
