Disappointed in Pakistan after a lacklustre performance which resulted in historic defeat at the hands of Afghanistan in Monday’s World Cup 2023 match, the fans and former cricketers criticised the national team for below the par showdown.
This is the first time Men in Green were outclassed by the neighours in an ODI match, with the score now standing at 7-1.
Chasing 283 to win, Afghanistan rode on the back of impressive innings from Ibrahim Zadran (87), Rahmat Shah (77 not out), Rahmanullah Gurbaz (65), and skipper Hashmatullah Shahidi (48 not out) to reach their target with six balls to spare.
Afghanistan, who stunned defending champions England earlier in the tournament, and Pakistan both now have two wins and three losses from their five group games.
Some fans said the Babar Azam-led side does not deserve to be in the top 4, while others believe that the Men In Green cannot come back after this defeat.
