Babar Azam on Shaheen Shah Afridi’s injury being the turning point of T20 World Cup final: It cost us a different result

 Shaheen Shah Afridi is one of the most respected cricketers in Pakistan and quite competent with the ball. So when he got injured before the last over, it came as a major blow for Pakistan and cost them the game. Afridi was playing well and bowling well- just like he always does. He has been instrumental in winning many games for Pakistan and is a very popular player as well. Pakistan had almost won the game but when Afridi got hit, they could not go on with their plan of defense and lost to Australia after completing 20 overs. This was one of the most memorable moments in the World Cup final. One of the key players for Pakistan, Shaheen Shah Afridi, had to leave the field for a brief period after being hit by a ball.   Babar Azam said that the injury to Shaheen Shah Afridi was the turning point of T20 World Cup final. He added that it cost us a different result. We should be proud of our team because they did their best in the final. Babar Azam said that he is deeply di...

Suryakumar yadav creates new history

The India batter continues his incredible form in 2022 breaking yet another record ⬇️ Yadav struck 61 off just 25 balls to put the Zimbabwe bowlers to the sword late on, lifting India from a chaseable target to 186/5 – something that proved out of their opponents' reach. And in scoring his half-century, SKY went past 1000 runs in T20 Internationals in 2022. The 32-year-old is the first Indian to achieve the feat and only the second player ever to do so, following in the footsteps of Mohammad Rizwan in 2021, with the Pakistan opener finishing with 1326 runs last year. SKY's achievement is even more extraordinary considering he has made his record run return batting most frequently at number four, limiting the number of deliveries faced substantially. Rizwan’s enormous haul last year came from 983 balls, whereas Yadav’s total has been hit off just 550. That is the biggest contrast with many of the other top run-scorers in the all-time T20I list – Yadav has accumulated his sizeabl...
