‘Pakistan look better. What India are doing is quite inappropriate’: Ex-PAK captain’s huge claim ahead of Asia Cup

The India and Pakistan men’s cricket team will take on each other in a blockbuster clash in the 2022 Asia Cup on August 28. Both sides haven’t met on the field since the last year’s T20 World Cup, where Babar Azam’s men had cruised to a 10-wicket victory. The bilateral series between India and Pakistan are currently at halt due to political tensions between both countries, and the sides only meet during international (World Cups/Champions Trophy) and continental (Asia Cup) tournaments. Since Pakistan’s win over India last year, however, India have made significant changes in their playing style in the shortest format under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma; however, former Pakistan captain Rashid Latif still believes that Babar’s men will have an upper hand when they take on India in the Asia Cup clash in Dubai.

Speaking in detail about both sides on his official YouTube channel ‘Caught Behind’, Latif said India’s continual changes in captaincy, coupled with inconsistent appearances of star players like Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, and Virat Kohli could cost them the tie against Pakistan.

“Win or loss is different. But I think Pakistan’s strategy is looking much better. There are not many changes in the Pakistan side, whether it’s T20I, ODI or Test. When you look at India, they have had around 7 captains in the past year, which is quite inappropriate in present situation,” Latif said.
