July 7: ESPN report by S Rajesh states that in the last couple of years, Pakistan have been on a roll in T20 Internationals. In 26 matches, they have won 22 and lost just four, which is quite a stunning record in a format in which it is generally difficult to string together wins. Their numbers during this period are not dissimilar to what they achieved in the early days of T20Is. In the period between 2006 and 2009, they won 21 out of 27, losing only five (excluding the Durban tie v India in the 2007 World T20). In between these two periods, from January 2010 to June 2016, they were quite poor; their 39-38 win-loss record was ninth among the top 11 teams but in the last two years, they have turned the magic switch back on.
