ICC Champions Trophy 2025: Former Pakistan cricketer Shoaib Akhtar targeted Pakistani players after the defeat against India. In the fifth match of the Champions Trophy 2025, the Indian team defeated Pakistan by 6 wickets.
Shoaib Akhtar looked disappointed after this match. After the match, he said, “Given the selection decision taken by the management and lack of quality in the current Pakistan team, I already felt that something like this was going to happen.”
Shoaib Akhtar shared a video on his Twitter account and targeted Pakistani players. He said, ‘People are saying that I am very disappointed. I am not disappointed at all. The reason for this is that I already knew that this was going to happen. The world is playing with six bowlers and you cannot even manage five bowlers. You are going with the players, I don’t know what you are thinking.
Akhtar further said, ‘The only place where there is a lack of brain is management. Why not?’ I am really disappointed. Now what should we tell the players? As the management is, there are also players. They do not know what should be done. The intention of something is one thing, but they do not have skills. He will play a brilliant shot like Rohit, Virat or Shubman and hit the ball in the air. I am really disappointed. I think neither the players nor the team management know anything. He went there to play. They did not know what to be done.
India defeated Pakistan by 6 wickets.
