Shahid Afridi, a former captain of Pakistan, offered his congratulations to Babar Azam and the rest of the team for winning the match. He also referred to the competitions between Pakistan and India as the “biggest athletic event.”
“Win! Excellent work was done by Rizwan, Nawaz, and Asif in concluding the project. Cricket between India and Pakistan has once more reached its pinnacle level. Greatest sporting event, “Tweeted Afridi.
If India wants to continue on to the championship match, they will need to win their upcoming matches against Sri Lanka and Afghanistan.
After missing an easy chance in the 18th over, Arshdeep Singh came on to bowl the final over. However, he was unable to protect seven runs, and as a result, Pakistan was able to emerge victorious in the end.
During the post-match news conference, India batsman Virat Kohli also voiced his support for Arshdeep by expressing the following: “Due to the precarious nature of the circumstances, the error could have been made by anyone. It was a high-stakes game, and as a result, mistakes were possible. I can still vividly recall that I was playing my first Champions Trophy match against Pakistan, and that during the match I had played a pretty poor shot against Shahid Afridi.
I couldn’t sleep, couldn’t stop staring at the ceiling till 5 in the morning, and feared my career was ruined as a result; yet, these are all natural occurrences. Senior players, please surround you; we have a positive atmosphere right now as a squad, and I owe the credit for it to our captain and our coach. The participants improve as a result of their errors. Therefore, an individual needs to own his error, take steps to rectify it, and look forward to being placed in a similarly stressful circumstance once more.”
