Shahid Afridi, former Pakistan captain, has issued a significant statement regarding the national team’s defeat in the series against New Zealand.
Afridi mentioned on his X account that the team failed to capitalize on a favorable batting surface, emphasizing that Pakistan should have aimed for a score around 220.
He commended Shadab Khan’s performance but urged the rest of the batsmen to improve their strike rates in similar conditions.
Afridi praised New Zealand’s Chapman for his exceptional innings, suggesting it could serve as a lesson on closing out matches.
Afridi concluded by wishing the national team luck for the remaining games.
Notably, New Zealand secured a seven-wicket victory over Pakistan in the third T20 match on Sunday.
