Put to bat first, Pakistan had been bundled out for simply 191 with Babar Azam scoring a half-century. Nearest, the hosts chased i’m sick the objective in 30.3 overs then Rohit Sharma performed a knock of 86 runs.
Akhtar praised Rohit for his grand batting efficiency and mentioned that the Indian skipper performed “ruthlessly”
“I am beginning to believe India is about to repeat that history of the 2011 World Cup. If they don’t mess up in the semi-finals, India is really there to win this World Cup. So well done India. You have done wonderfully well. You destroyed us, demoralized us, and decimated us. Disappointing performance, a very disappointing performance. Today, India completely hammered Pakistan.” said Akhtar on his YouTube channel.
“Rohit Sharma was a one-man army. I don’t know where was Rohit Sharma in the last couple of years. He is a very big player and has a wide range of shots. He is a complete batter, a complete team, Pakistan’s humiliation is in front of us. India ne Bachon ki tarah maara(India beat Pakistan like kids). I couldn’t watch it. Rohit Sharma played ruthlessly,” he added.
Akhtar went directly to situation that Rohit “humiliated” Pakistan’s bowling assault and took revenge for his beggarly performances within the extreme two years.
“The kind of innings he played, he humiliated Pakistan’s bowling attack. He took revenge for the last two years where he didn’t get many runs. Good to see Rohit Sharma back, he did right to smash the bowlers. What’s the need to finish the game at the last overs and take it deep? Rohit hammered the bowlers,” stated Akhtar.
