Former Pakistan Skipper Shahid Afridi believes India have every chance of defeating his Nation in the Champions Trophy clash on Sunday (June 4th, 2017). He quotes Team India's Recent Track Record & it's Depth as the two reasons which prompted him to make such a prediction.
Shahid Afridi is all praise for Indian skipper Virat Kohli & pacer Jasprit Bumrah. He rates Kohli as an exceptional player citing centuries against Pakistan in Asia Cup 2012 & World Cup 2015. He feels Pak Bowling Attack should be on top of their game to take the wicket of Kohli early. He advises them to attack especially when Kohli is new at the crease as India can be restricted to a low score if he gets out cheaply.
The 37-Year-Old lauded the skill set and temperament of Jasprit Bumrah. He says Bumrah could bowl yorkers at will and reminds him of Pak pacers during the 90s.
Afridi made these comments in the column for the official website of International Cricket Council (ICC).
