Pakistan T20 captain Shahid Afridi is relying heavily on senior players of the team, and has said that the country's hopes of retaining the World T20 title rest on their shoulders.

Afridi pointed out that senior members of the squad such as all-rounder Abdul Razzaq, middle-order batsman Misbah-ul-Haq and wicket keeper Kamran Akmal will have to fire if Pakistan has to defend its crown.
