Pak vs Ire
islamabad
Former Pakistan skipper and all-rounder Shahid Afridi appreciated the Green Shirts for their much needed win against Ireland in the ongoing T20I series.
The Men in Green on Sunday inflicted a humiliating seven-wicket defeat on Ireland in the second T20I at the Clontarf Cricket Club in Dublin.
Afridi, while lauding wicketkeeper-batter Muhammad Rizwan and batter Fakhar Zaman, said that the team needs the same mindset in the World Cup and similar strike rates for most batsmen.
“We needed this win. Well done team, [especially] the way Rizwan and Fakhar played,” wrote the former player. He also congratulated star pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi for achieving 300 wickets in international matches.
The Men in Green chased down the target in the 17th over on the back of performances by Rizwan, Fakhar and Azam Khan. With the fresh victory, Pakistan levelled the three match series 1-1.
