The two arch-rivals India-Pakistan are meeting again in the Super Four stage of the Asia Cup. The cricketing world is lucky to witness another high-voltage match. It can’t happen that, the two superpowers of cricket will face each other and there will be no hue and cry outside the field? A few days ago, Pakistan’s Waqar Younis and India’s Irfan Pathan got into a war of words around the India-Pakistan match.
Before this high voltage match, the former captain of Pakistan, Mohammad Hafeez, started a war of words. Hafeez’s comments caused a storm in world cricket. ICC loves India not for playing cricket but for BCCI’s huge money, commented Mohammad Hafeez. Not only that, but he also commented that India is ICC’s ‘favorite son’.
In an interview on Pak Television, Hafeez said, “I can’t say much about this. But I know this, in our society, everyone loves the one who has more money. He is the favorite son of that house. Everyone kisses him more on the cheek. That has happened in India too. ”
Explaining this, Hafeez further said, “India earns the most from cricket. No matter where they play bilateral series in the world, they have no problem getting sponsors. There is nothing to deny that. The ICC also knows that. So, they can’t say anything.”
It should be noted that India defeated Pakistan in the match on August 28 in the Asia Cup. The schedule of the 16-day Asia Cup has been made in such a way that the cricket world can watch the India-Pakistan duel three times. It remains to be seen who will win Sunday’s match. So far India has won the Asia Cup maximum of 7 times.
