The "Reach the Final" Statement
What's with the reach the final statement? After the chaos of the hockey setup one month before the world cup the newly appointed coach after stating all that was wrong mentioned nonchalantly, "We will reach the final." It was funny even though it was sad. Actually they ended up sixth.
Now with all the chaos of the cricket setup Younis has commented that they will reach the final. Even for a very good and stable team that is a tall claim. What is Younis basing it on? Even reaching the semifinal will be a tough ask though it is possible. And yes reaching the final is always a possibility and so is winning but the statement comes across as, "Yeah no problem reaching the final but after that I don't know." If it is supposed to somehow instill confidence then why stop at reaching the final, just say, "We will win it." It won't be any more ridiculous.
