Asia Cup 2023
‘Get ready to lose against Bharat’ – Fans react as Babar Azam talks about giving 100% against India in their next match of Asia Cup 2023
The Pakistan team has had a wonderful start to the Super Fours, as they won the opening game against Bangladesh on September 6 at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, which makes it easy for them to reach the finals of the Asia Cup 2023. Notably, the Men in Green will be looking to get a win against India in their next match to confirm their spot in the finals of the Asia Cup 2023. Meanwhile, after an emphatic win against Shakib Al Hasan’s side, Pakistan skipper Babar Azam shared his happiness.
The stylish right-handed batter says that the win in their opening match of the Super Fours gives them huge confidence. Moreover, the 28-year-old skipper affirms that they will give their 100% to win their next match, i.e., against India, which is all set to take place on September 10 in Colombo, Sri Lanka.
“This win will give us confidence, we are always ready for a big match. We will give our 100% in the next match,” Babar Azam said in the post-match presentation.
I hope all of them enjoyed this match: Babar Azam
In addition, the top-order batter lauded the bowlers for bundling out Bangladesh for 193 runs. Notably, the star cricketer heaps praise on left-arm pacer Shaheen Afridi and star pacer Haris Rauf for their wonderful bowling spells. The Lahore-born cricketer further added that the crowd on home soil always supports them.
“Too much heat, but full credit to the fast bowlers. First Shaheen and then Haris Rauf. We planned on picking Faheem because we saw the pitches here, there was grass on it and we like that also. Always when we play here, the crowd supports us and I hope all of them enjoyed this match,” he added further.
Speaking here about the match, Bangladesh skipper Shakib-Al-Hasan won the toss and invited the hosts to field first. Notably, after opting to bat first, the visitors could only rack up 193 runs before bundling out against Pakistan’s bowling attack. Later, while casing, the home team chased down the target with 63 balls to spare.
