Shahid Afridi to Shoaib Akhtar; How Ex-Pakistan Players Reacted to Virat Kohli-Led Team India’s Loss vs New Zealand in T20 WC Super 12 Clash | Earth Indian

Dubai: It was shocking to see title contenders Team India lose to New Zealand by eight wickets on Sunday in a do-or-die Super 12 clash. Now, with India on the verge of exit, it would be difficult for them to pull up their socks and bounce back. After the loss against NZ, ex-Pakistan cricketers reacted to why India could not win.

Shahid Afridi reckoned it is not yet over for India and they still have an outside chance. “India still has an outside chance of qualifying for semis but with how they have played their two big games in the event, it will be nothing but a miracle to see them qualify. @T20WorldCup,” Afridi tweeted.

Shoaib Akhtar went on to criticise the move of sending young Ishan Kishan to open and he also felt Hardik Pandya came into bowl when the game was almost over. Calling the Indian side a lost squad, Akhtar reckoned Kohli and Co were clueless. He also felt that Rohit Sharma coming in at No 3 and Virat Kohli at No 4 was not the right move.

India would now have to win their last three games with huge margins to stand an outside chance of making the semis.
