Coach Waqar Younis hopes Pakistan can put a turbulent build-up to the ICC World Twenty20 behind them as they begin their campaign against Bangaldesh in Kolkata on Wednesday. Pakistans participation in the competition was a doubt up until last week, when they were given clearance by their government to travel to India following security concerns.Their preparations were undermined further earlier this week when captain Shahid Afridi defended comments he made over the adulation he receives in India. Younis, though, was strictly focused on the task at hand and he will urge the same from his players before they take to the field at Eden Gardens.He said in a press conference broadcast on the Pakistan Cricket Boards official website: We had a bit of drama before coming here, we had a bit of controversy yesterday also. Shahid Afridis comments caused some controversy My message to the boys will be to leave everything behind because this is about playing for the nation, this is about playing some quality cricket and theyre all capable of playing good cricket.We are the kind of team that once we click, once we get the momentum going, we can surprise people.Of Afridis remarks, the former fast bowler added: I didnt find anything that controversial in it. This is something he felt, so I believe we should leave that rather than talk more about it. Pakistan won the competition on its second staging in England in 2009 but their recent form has been poor, with series defeats to England and New Zealand in the last six months and an early exit in the Asia Cup.Indeed in that tournament they suffered a surprise defeat to Bangladesh, who went on to reach the final on home turf, although Younis, while not underestimating the Tigers, believes conditions will be more neutral this time.He said: I have seen the wicket, definitely different conditions to Bangladesh. But when you play good cricket, conditions do not really matter that much. Bangladesh cricket captain Mashrafe Bin Mortaza I think Bangladesh are playing very good cricket so weve got to be really watchful and we have to come out really strong to beat them.Bangladesh reached the Super 10s stage, where they will also face Australia, India and New Zealand, after topping their first-round group with victories over Holland and Oman. Bangladesh are hoping Mustafizur Rahman will be fit Skipper Mashrafe Mortaza said in quotes on the Dhaka Tribune: There is nothing called impossible in Twenty20 cricket.We are here to play and play well. We want to play our best possible cricket. I am confident that the way we are performing at the moment, we have no thing much to worry about.Bangladesh will be hoping to call upon Mustafizur Rahman, the left-arm seamer who has exploded onto the scene in limited-overs cricket but has not played since last month because of a side strain.Sky Sports is the only place you can watch all 35 games in 27 days of the 2016 ICC World T20.
