Shahid Afridi makes remarks on ‘foolish’ Asif Ali

  • Legendary Pakistan all-rounder Shahid Afridi has made.
  • Hilarious remark about Asif Ali, who played a vital appearance.
  • In the Asia Cup match against India on Sunday in Dubai.

Shahid Afridi said it was a foolish move, talking about Asif’s decision to pick a single, rather than finishing the match with a big shot.

On the third ball of the final over, when Pakistan needed just two runs to win, Asif attempted to get across the stumps and flick Arshdeep Singh towards the leg-side, but he missed the yorker by the left-armer and was given out leg-before wicket.

“The situation should not have come down to Iftikhar [Ahmed]. I don’t know why foolish Asif Ali tried to take a single. He should have smacked the bowler straight down the ground,” said Afridi.

The flamboyant all-rounder additionally commended Pakistan’s attitude during the success against their most outstanding opponents.

“Pakistan won because of their self-belief. They were confident about chasing the total down and that’s why they won,” he said.

Pakistan dominated the game by five wickets with Mohammad Nawaz’s overall presentation assuming a vital part in group’s triumph.

The Super Four match on Sunday was the second time India and Pakistan have played against one another in the continuous Asia Cup.

India dominated the principal match and they might meet again in the last on Sunday.
