A lot of parallels are being drawn between 1992 ODI World Cup and current T20 World Cup which hints at the odds which favour Pakistan to lift the coveted trophy.

Looks like stars are aligning for Pakistan to become the T20 World Cup 2022 champions just like what happened in 1992. Let's know the similarities between 2022 and 1992.

In the 2022 T20 World Cup, Pakistan lost in Melbourne. The same thing happened in the 1992 World Cup as well.

In the 1992 World Cup too, India defeated Pakistan in the group stage. The same has happened this time as well.

Just like 2022, in 1992 too, Pakistan had won three consecutive matches at the end of the group stage.

In 1992 too, Pakistan reached the semis on the last day of the group stage and same happened in 2022. Also, there was a difference of just one point on both occasions.

In 1992, Pakistan faced New Zealand in the semi-finals. The same is going to happen this time as well.

In the 1987 ODI World Cup, Australia defeated Pakistan in the semi-finals. The same happened in the 2021 T20 World semi-final as well.

Before 1992, the 1987 World Cup was held in Asia and Australia became the champions. Before the 2022 T20 World Cup, the T20 World Cup was held in Asia itself in 2021 and Australia won.
