Babar Azam-led Pakistan suffered a huge blow to their T20 World Cup semi-final hopes on Thursday after their one-run defeat to Zimbabwe in their Super 12 Group 2 contest, and that was met with huge criticism from many, including former Pakistan speedster Shoaib Akhtar.
Soon after the game, Shoaib on his official Twitter account on Thursday, had launched a scathing attack on Pakistan team and its management, terming the defeat as ’embarrassing’.
And later on Thursday night, Akhtar seemed to even take a dig on the Indian team, predicting that India would bow out from the semi-final stage next week.
“I had already told Pakistan that they will come back this week. And India will come back next week after playing in the semi-final. Voh bhi koi Tees Maar Khan nahi hai (India are also not some unbeatable side) and we are even worse,” Akhtar said on his official YouTube channel.
