But after the latest win against the Kiwis, the similarities have become even more unreal. It’s almost spooky 👀👀👀
The 2019 World Cup is going the exact same way as the 1992 tournament.
Which means, of course, that Pakistan will do exactly what they did in 1992 and win the World Cup.♥#CWC19 pic.twitter.com/hNYmxB5k5x— 🦋 (@itsmunu) June 26, 2019
People are asserting that history is going to repeat itself and Pakistan will end up winning the 2019 World Cup
"It's a no-brainer, history is going to repeat itself."
The Pakistan fans are getting very excited about the many similarities between the 1992 and 2019 World Cups.#WeHaveWeWill | #CWC19 pic.twitter.com/fqWC2YatCt

They are mentioning that the cricket experts too, are not able to ignore the uncanny resemblance between both the World Cups
Haha. Even the commentators are forced to mention the uncanny resemblance of Pakistan's 2019 World Cup campaign with 1992 so far.

People have been discussing that even in 1992, Pakistan was the one who broke the winning streak of New Zealand
