We Are Better Than Team India: Pak Skipper
By: Tupaki Desk | 16 Aug 2018 12:02 PM GMT
India holds No.1 Ranking in the ICC Test Rankings but the performance of Kohli's Team in the Second Test Match against England at Lords is below par. This is why India faced a shameful defeat in the ground where England Batsman scored effortlessly. And now, Cricketers & Former Cricketers have been pointing fingers at Team India. It's now the turn of Pakistan Skipper!
Sarfraz Ahmed: 'I had toured in England twice. We gave a tough fight to England on both these tours. In 2016, We had come to England 25 days before the start of the Test Series for 10 days training camp and two practice games. We had drawn the 4-match series 2-2 by winning at Lords and Oval. This year, We played three practice games. In the 3-Test Series, We won the first match but could only make it 1-1 in the end. As a captain and player, I believe our preparation for England Tours was far better than that of India'.
India played only one practice game before the ongoing Test Series. That is why they have been outplayed completely in the second test. After being down 2-0, Kohli is likely to lose the first Test Series in England as Skipper. Ex-Cricketers keep saying players should have enough practice for foreign tours. Whereas, BCCI is mostly focussing on revenue generation and repeating the same mistakes.
