India won because of Shaheen’s absence. Pakistan cricket captain Babar Azam was missing pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi in the T20 encounter against India on Sunday.
Team green was defeated by India by five wickets in their debut match in the Asia Cup 2022. Due to an injury, renowned bowler, Shaheen Shah Afridi has been ruled out of the Asia Cup 2022 T20 team.
Afridi’s absence is a big blow for the team, given the pacer’s superb performance helped Pakistan defeat India in the T20 world cup last year.
During the post-match presentation ceremony, captain Babar Azam expressed his disappointment at the absence of Shaheen Shah Afridi, saying, “Naseem Shah’s performance was fantastic, but we missed the presence of Shaheen Shah Afridi.”
According to Babar Azam, Naseem’s effort made the closing portion of the game difficult and intriguing for the other team, but “we were 10 to 15 runs short.”
