Former Pakistan cricketer, Saqlain Mushtaq lauds Team India for beating arch-rivals Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2018 Group A match on September 19 (Wednesday) by eight wickets at Dubai International Stadium in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
However, India won their second Asia Cup match convincingly against Pakistani team by eight wickets. On Wednesday, Pakistan skipper Sarfraz Ahmed won the toss and elected to bat first. They managed to post a score of 162 runs after losing all their wickets.
However, the Indian bowlers did some fantastic job to rattle Men in Green batting line up quickly.
Moreover, Bhuvneshwar Kumar delivered goods for India, and Kedar Jadhav bowled a fantastic spell of nine overs while giving away 23 runs to bag three wickets.
However, after Hardik Pandya picked a hip injury in the middle, Jadhav was given the responsibility to replace him.
Meanwhile, achieving a target of 163 runs for India was not a tough job. They ruled the Pakistan bowling attack and reached the 50-run mark within nine overs. Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan played brilliantly and reduced the pressure for the rest of the team.
“Some you win others you lose. Winning and losing is a part of the game! Never mind, Team Pakistan! Congratulations and well done Team India,” the post read.
